IRS Pub587 for year 2022 says 12 month of business use of home deprecation percentage is 2.461%. But Turbo Tax automatically filled in with 2.5641% for me in Form 8829 line 41. I am confused, where does Turbo tax get this information from?

The percentage in the Publication presumes 2022 was the first year the home was used for business.

 

If business use began in an earlier year, the percentage would be higher.
