It's not true that Form DR-462 is only used for overpayment to an incorrect account. Here are the reasons listed on the Florida Department of Revenue website for filing Form DR-462:

• An approved exemption not applied to your bill
• Being billed for the wrong building or incorrect
square footage
• Being double assessed
• A miscalculated early payment discount
• A mathematical error
• Overpayment of property taxes
• Payment when no tax is due
• Payment of someone else’s taxes in error
• Payment for a tax certificate that is
subsequently corrected or amended
