If my Florida state return is $0, do I still have to file?

I am self-employed and after filing federal, the Florida state taxes for me are $0. Do I still need to mail it?

Florida does not levy a state individual income tax. You do not need to print and mail an income tax return to the state.

The Florida return in TurboTax is to report tangible personal property that is used in a Florida-located business or rental property and is filed with the county property appraiser by April 1st. 

If you do not have tangible personal property to report, choose   Skip State   in the   State Taxes   section.

If you proceeded past the warning screens, try deleting the Florida return --> https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1900608

If you paid for a return that you do not need, contact customer support.
