    Certainly you can file. Nothing in the law says you cannot. The worst that can happen is that you are turned down.

    However, there are only a very few states that consider relocation to follow a spouse to be a valid reason to collect benefits, and to the best of my knowledge Florida is not one of them.

    Can't hurt to try, though.
