income tax question on 401 withdrawal for first time home purchase?

Tuesday Nov 4, 2008

my son purchased a home in 04/06, he then renovated the home, using a credit card, in 2007 he decided to withdraw money from his 401 retirement, and pay off the credit card balance. can he avoid paying the 10% penalty imposed by irs or did he wait to long?

The exclusion of $10,000 for first time home buyers is for IRAs only.
