Since money was withheld from my 401(k) distribution, do I have to include that money as income and do I pay the 10% early withdrawal fee as well?

Yes, you need to include in income the total amount of your 401(k) distribution reported on Form 1099-R (PDF) ,Distributions From Pensions, Annuities, Retirement on Profit-Sharing Plans, IRAs Insurance Contracts, etc.. In addition, if you took the distribution before age 59 1/2, you may need to pay a 10 percent additional tax on early distributions from qualified retirement plans unless you meet one of the exceptions in Publication 575, Pension and Annuity Income. You will include the federal income tax withheld on the appropriate line of your federal tax return along with any other federal income tax.
