Florida does not have a state income tax.   You should have skipped the FL tax unless you own rental property  in FL or a FL based business.

Florida has a  tangible personal property tax form 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 need to file a Form DR-405, nothing will print (except an instruction sheet) unless assets were transferred or you manually entered assets in the DR-405 worksheet. 

 

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.

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. 
 

If you do not have a Florida business or rental property with such tangible personal property, then you do not have to file a Florida return.  

 

You may delete the Florida return before paying and filing if it is not needed.
