Where do I find my state and local tax refund ? is it possible it automatically fills itself in from last year to this year?

It depends.

You typically only need to report the state and local tax refund from last year if you were able to itemize your deductions last year as well as a few other criteria. To locate this amount, you can check a couple of places to find last year's state/local refund as suggested in this link.  

Once you have the amount, follow the steps here to enter it into TurboTax.
