Why did TurboTax apply $3003 capital loss for year 2023

I had a capital loss of well over $3000 in 2023. TurboTax showed that -$3003 Capital Loss Applied in 2023.

 

Isn't the limit $3000 per year for Capital Loss?

    Check your 1099DIV dividends or K-1 for any capital gains.  Seems you had $3 of capital gains.   Is 1040 line 7 -3,000?

    Line 7 of 1040 (and Schedule D) shows -3000.

    I have $36 Ordinary Dividends. So it's weird that the number is neither—$3000 nor—$3036 but—$3003.

    No not dividends but on the 1099 DIV check box 2a for Capital Gains Distributions.
