I'm not understanding the overpayment. What is it and how did I get overpayment?

we have no access to your return.  you would have an overpayment if you had withholding/estimated tax payments and/or tax credits that exceeded your liability. You'll have to review your entries to make sure they're correct. It would also help, if possible, to compare 2023 with 2024 line for line. however, that is probably not possible with Online until you pay any Turbotax fees.

,,,but just in case......

Based solely on the information you've entered so far:

An overpayment indicates you are due to get a "refund" of some of the taxes you've already paid,....or maybe some more for additional credits.

But that can change as you continue to enter all your tax forms......or may be off some if you've mis-entered  some of your income, withholding, deductions or credits....etc.

Is it asking what to do with your overpayment?  An overpayment is your refund. It means Do you want to leave your refund with the IRS or state and apply it to next year's tax return you do in 2026. Most people don't want to do that and want to get their refund now. So say NO, not to apply it.
