Rolling over retirement account using indirect disbursement?

I rolled over a retirement account to another one. I did the indirect as we used the money for a house down payment "loan" for a week until we closed on our old house.

The previous account withheld 20% for taxes. I just read that I was supposed to come up with the 20% out of my own funds to put into the new account.

Did I screw myself on taxes this year assuming I will have to pay taxes on the withheld 20%?

Is your 60 day window over?

Yes, a couple weeks ago.

Luckily the taxes should only be a % of the 20% but still pisses me off that this info was buried in a document separate from my disbursement filing. Really didn't think I'd have to cover money they withheld for taxes.

Well the larger damage is that your taxable income was increased by the 20% that you failed to put back in.
