To transfer last year's information to this years return I apparently need to provide a file password, but I didn't use one last year. How do I transfer the info?

You appear to be using TurboTax Online, and, if so, you would've needed a password for your account last year. 

See the TurboTax Help articles Why didn't last year's tax return transfer over in TurboTax Online? and How do I transfer last year's return into TurboTax Online? for guidance on pulling last year's information over.

If you're actually using the desktop version of TurboTax, see the TurboTax Help articles How do I troubleshoot copying info from a prior-year return in TurboTax Desktop? and Transfer last year's return to TurboTax Desktop for Windows.
