As long as as the will was validly executed in New York, Florida will recognize the will. You do not have to file it. I strongly recommend consulting with an estate planning attorney to review your will since Florida laws are different and there may be language you want to change in the will to better protect your interests. While having your will reviewed, you should also have your health care directives and durable power of attorney updated.
