To the accountants out there... seeks a little IRA guidance


My dad passed away on Thanksgiving. His wife says I'm set to receive ~$10k from IRA. I'm trying to read up on implications of this- and it seems a little tricky. Can any of yall give me the 2 sentence "this is what you need to know"?

I've read that I have to cash it out before 5 years, but that I'll incur a 10% tax penalty for doing so since I will not be 59.5 yrs, I'll owe federal and state taxes... even though this is an inheritance which, if cash, would not be subject to taxes. What am I wrong/right about?
