Did you pay anything? If you are in Free Edition, you shouldn't have been charged for the FLA "state return", which is not really a state form but is a form called DR-405.. See the answer below with more info. You could have skipped the "state return", but if you prepared but don't need the Form DR-405, just don't file it with the county appraiser . The program does not actually file it for you. It allows you to print something, but it may not even be the full form. So if you don't need it, and didn't pay for it, just don't use it.

Florida does not have a state income tax. Only people who have Florida businesses or rental property with tangible personal property have to file a DR-405 with the county property appraiser by April 1 each year.

If you don't have a Florida business or rental property with such tangible personal property, then you do not have to file a Florida return. On the screen that mentions the Florida state return, you can choose to decline the Florida return, or if you've passed that, delete the Florida return before paying and filing if it's not needed.

If you've paid for the Florida return and don't need it as explained above, you can talk to TurboTax Customer Support and tell them you didn't need it and ask for a refund.
