If I understand you correctly, you moved from SC to GA in 2018, but the company kept withholding SC taxes until early 2019? Is that right?
The following discussion is based on these assumptions. Please come back and tell me different if I assumed wrong.
If so, you will file a nonresident SC return and a resident GA return. Please do them in this order.
You will have to file the SC return because his employer has already sent the withheld taxes to SC and the only way for you to get them back is to file a SC return showing that you don't owe any SC tax.
In the SC interview in TurboTax, you will indicate that you are a nonresident, and continue, eventually you will see a screen with the heading "South Carolina Part-Year and Nonresidents". On this screen - and on any subsequent screens with similar questions - enter 0 for all your income items.
By the time you are finished, you should be showing zero SC income, so all of the SC withholding will be returned to you.
