I am claiming reserve travel expenses on my federal return, which show up on federal Form 2106. The state of Alabama requires a threshold of 2% for business expenses to be deductible for Alabama state tax purposes--which I won't meet. I have tried several times to delete Form 2106 from my Alabama tax return, but it always returns. This is also holding up me from filing my Alabama return as TurboTax wants me to wait until Alabama finalizes their version of Form 2106 (which will be in a few weeks)--and even then, it will be a print-only form vs. something I can e-file. As I'll never hit the threshold for business expenses on Schedule A of my Alabama return, I just want to delete the reference to business expenses from my Alabama return and file my return via e-file. Is it possible to do this?

Unfortunately, no, you can't delete the Form 2106 on your state return without deleting on your federal return as well (they are tied together). To remove it from your state return, you would need to remove it from your federal return
You can file your federal return now and wait to file your Alabama return, however.
