You technically could file a part-year resident, but there's not much point to doing so. You may not have physically moved your items until January 8, but by beginning your job on January 1 and moving so soon, you in essence established residency January 1. This is especially so if that was your intention all along. (No sense making the state returns any more complicated than they need to be).

Thank you!
