Question

Why is lifetime learning credit not applying. I had received for the 2022 taxes. I had been in school the entire year of 2023, full time, & I am not a dependent.

The lifetime learning credit is non refundable. That is, it can only be used to reduce your income tax liability.  If line 18 of form 1040 is already 0, you will see no LLC on line 20. But, TurboTax will complete form 8863 to show that you qualified and that the calculation was for $0 credit.
