My client has a distribution from a Qualified pension plan of $21,000 which was used as a down payment on his very first home. Since this came from a Qualified plan, can up to $10,000 be subtracted from the distribution and balance charged 10% tax? This is not an IRA, where I believe there is this allowance but does it also include 'qualified plans'? The tax programs are allowing the deduction.
Thanks for thoughts
