I lived and worked in MA from Jan 1st to mid-August. Moved to NY, and worked for the same company remotely in NY. Do I complete PartYear or PY/NonResident for MA?

I can't figure out if I should complete Massachusetts Part-Year or Massachusetts Part-Year/Non-Resident. I lived in MA from Jan 1st to mid-August and worked in an office in MA during this time. After I moved to NY, I worked for the same company remotely full-time in NY. From Jan 1st up until my move, I paid state taxes to MA. After my move, I paid state taxes to NY (where I lived and worked from). The question "Did you earn income from a Massachusetts source or employer during the time you did not live in Massachusetts? " confuses me... The employer is in MA, but I was not. If I choose "Yes", TurboTax asks me to fill the non-resident form, but per my understanding, this is if I earn income while physically working in MA and being a non-resident. Can someone confirm whether or not I should be completing non-resident form? The income amount would be $0 for income earned in MA while non-resident (the form doesn't like this)

whatever state you lived in for 183 days of the year for was your primary residence
