If you have no W-2 income and you are in Florida for more than 6 months of the year, you are probably good-to-go tax wise (but please do not rely on forum advice without checking). In the unlikely event of an Audit by the state of Wisconsin, a Florida license and other evidence of residency would be useful.
Wisconsin tax law requires people earning income in Wisconsin, to pay state income tax. Even if they're only living there part time.
