Unable to import passwords from chrome into Firefox!

The chrome to Firefox import function works well for bookmarks, not for passwords. None of the passwords from chrome appear when I try to import it. The password manager list remains just the same.

See this support article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/import-bookmarks-google-chrome

Cookies, Browsing History, Passwords, and Bookmarks should all be imported from Chrome, but the user may need to select the types of data that they want to import; I am not sure what the import function defaults towards.
