So sorry if you were not aware of this--but using money from your 401K purchase a home is not an exception to the early withdrawal penalty. That only works with an IRA. If you have already taken the money out of a 401k you will owe the 10% early withdrawal penalty and the ordinary income tax on the distribution you took. You will receive a 1099R in January that you will need to enter on your 2017 tax return.
