Yes. Since you are resident of Alabama (according to Individuals Subject to Alabama Income Tax, section 1(c)), any deduction for your home is deducted on your Alabama Tax Return as itemized deductions. See: Alabama’s (Instruction booklet), p. 18, column 3 under “Section 5”. Even though you own a home in Virginia, Alabama considers you as “domiciled” or living, in Alabama. You should not even have to pay Virginia Tax (unless you worked a job in Virginia that is not active duty military.)
