We live in Alabama. My wife receives retirement pay from the job she had in Georgia. Are we required to file a GA tax return?

No, retirement is income only in your resident state. Public Law 104-95 (P.L. 104-95) prevents any state from taxing income from certain pensions and deferred compensation plans paid to individuals who are not residents or domiciliaries of that state.
