As I said above, Florida has no state income tax, and there is no Florida state income tax return to prepare and send to the state. The only thing TurboTax prepares for Florida is a form DR-405, for those people who need it (most Floridians do not.)
As explained above, only people who have Florida businesses or rental properties with tangible personal property have to file a form DR-405, and that form is filed with the county property appraiser by April 1. If you don't have a Florida business or rental property that has tangible personal property, then you don't need to file anything with the county appraiser. If you DO have a Florida business or rental property with tangible personal property, then you do have to file the Form DR-405 with your county property appraiser by April 1.

The Federal return has nothing to do with any Florida return. If you efiled your Federal return, the IRS will begin processing returns on January 23, and you will find out soon after that if your Federal return was accepted or rejected. A few returns are pulled early, however, so it is possible that you find out before January 23.
I will ask one of our SuperUsers from Florida to review this thread to see if he has anything else to add about Florida.
@tagteam Is there anything else this Florida filer needs to know? Thanks!
