Do I need or not need to file a DR 405 Florida Tangible for working for Uber eats in Florida? I found yes and no answers on the turbo tax community not sure whos right?

Only worked for Uber eats from June 2018 thru August 2018 only three months. Thanks

You would only need to file a DR-405 if you used tangible personal property in a Florida-located business or rental property and were in possession of that property on January 1st.

See https://floridarevenue.com/property/Pages/Taxpayers_TangiblePersonalProperty.aspx

Since it appears that you were not self-employed (e.g., Uber eats, I presume) on January 1st, but only from June through August, you would have not been using TPP on January 1st.

You can contact your County Property Appraiser's office for more information.

As an Uber Eats driver it is more than likely that the Only tangible personal property used in your business was your vehicle.  As stated in the instructions for Florida Form DR-405 - https://floridarevenue.com/property/Documents/dr405a.pdf

Do not include:

Most automobiles, trucks, and other licensed vehicles.

So you would not complete a Florida Form DR-405 for your business.
