Many websites also want additional verification such as pet's name or first car etc. I used to be able to enter comments when the passwords were in Safari, but no longer.
Mac Studio (2022)
Correct
Some websites have implemented their from of 2FA where a Trust Device, of you choice, will receive a 6 digit One Time Usage verification code
That Code will be required to be input
Automatically fill verification codes on Mac
Governmental Websites, where I live also use their form of a 2FA where the Their 6 digit Code is sent to Trusted Device
In this case, a The Register Cellphone Phone number that is registered with the Governmental Service
Secondary like things like " Name of First Pet " are not longer
As for the Password Application itself to have those secondary things
As mentioned earlier - Not that I am aware of
An aside to this issue
Not to be too picky, you have replied to yourself, which can happen making it difficult to really know to Whom you reply is intended

Some sites do that rather than using a verification code. You will have to enter the answer manually.
Prime example
My wife has a Bank Account which Requires a secondary verification
In her case, What is the name of your First Pet ?
The answer requires manually inputting the answer
To be honest, that is the Old Way and more current websites use the Secondary Trusted Device mode
Thanks for your replies, but I was not asking for an automatic way of filling in a web site's additional requests for identifying oneself. Many websites still use code words like "first pet" or whatever. I would like to be able to store those words in the Passwords app as I was able to when the info was part of Safari.
Currently I have to go to a separate password protected worksheet where I keep these choice words.
There is also the need for keeping comments about the idiosyncratic vagaries of a website, especially if it doesn't follow 'normal' entry conventions such as many governmental sites which are often several generations behind in coding practices. For example, there is one site in particular that says I should check my email when the numeric code for a pwd change is actually going to my wife's -- even though her profile is correctly created.

Thank you for the confirmation.
I'm not aware of any way to store the info in Passwords.
The Passwords app is very limited compared to others that have been in use for a while. At the moment the only place to store your questions and answers is in the notes field of the password entry.
Password app / how do I enter comments for a given password?
