401k distribution from divorce and taxes

I was divorced in 2009. I was awarded 20000.00 from my ex 401k by qdro. It is now 2010. Will they withhold the IL state and fed tax before sending me the check? I heard in a divorce the early withdrawel penalty of 10% is waived when it pertains to a divorce order. Also, do I have to claim this as income on my taxes this year or next year?
