You can withdraw from your 401(k) penalty-free starting at age 59½. Prior to this age, withdrawals may incur a 10% early withdrawal penalty on top of regular income tax.

I had heard that in 2009 the President would let you take up to 10000.00 out of your 401K without a penality. Is this true.?

Though penalty-free withdrawals were initially part of the President's economic recovery plan, that measure never made it through Congress. As of right now, a 10% early withdrawal penalty is still assessed if you choose to take money out of your 401K.

Can you purchase a home with cash from a 401k if you are 60 and you have filed a chapter 13 bankruptcy?

Probably not. There is a limit to how much you can borrow on your 401(k), and you would have to use current income to repay it, which would violate the terms of the plan. If you withdraw all or part of your 401(k). you will pay a penalty and taxes on the amount withdrawn, so the proceeds will be less. If the amount left is enough to buy a house without taking out a mortgage, you might be able to do it, as long as your other expenses do not change significantly. It would have to be done carefully, so consult a good bankruptcy lawyer.
