See the following reason that could stop you from e-filing.

Returns can't be e-filed if they:

Contain overrides
Have no taxable income
Contain a W-2 where box 1 is blank or the box 16 amount is greater than the box 1 amount
Contain IRS forms or schedules not on the accepted Forms and Schedules list
Contain non-final forms
Are for prior-year or amended returns

Many nonresident and part-year state returns cannot be e-filed either, so we'll let you know if it must be paper-filed.

In addition, certain returns keep getting rejected because somebody else already claimed a dependent on the return or because of incorrect information in the IRS database. In these cases, there's nothing you can do to fix your return and e-file it. You'll need to file a paper return instead.

No----there must be some other reason you cannot e-file. Did you enter taxable income? What income did you enter? If you only entered Social Security that is why you cannot e-file. Florida has nothing to do with it, since FL has no state income tax.
