And, taking money out of a 401k to purchase a first home is not an exception to the early withdrawal penalty like it could be for a traditional IRA.  You should have a 1099R for the distribution from your 401k.

Go to  Federal> Wages and Income>Retirement Plans and Social Security>IRA  401 k) Pension Plan Withdrawals to enter your 1099R.
