Heck, in other years in this situation, you'd indicate you were a full yr resident of GA the whole year, and then treat NC as a a temporary residence that you didn't really "move" to. ...since you were there only temporarily.
The you'd prepare and file the NC nonresident tax return reporting just the portion of your W-2 wage income that you received while physically working there....and if any ends up getting taxed by NC, you'll get a credit on the GA tax return for any taxes NC kept. But you do have to prepare the NC non-resident tax return first.
That's the only way I can see to handle it......but that's just my opinion. I don't think any State's tax returns allow for two moves during the year claiming you were a resident of one...then the other...then to a 3rd state (or back to the original in your case). Just treat the middle state as income as a non-resident
