First the loan repayments are made with after-tax income (that’s once) and, second, when you take those payments out as a distribution at retirement you pay income tax on them (that’s twice). So yes, you pay twice. The taxation is exactly the same whether you borrow from your 401k or from another source.

This will give you more time but delay any payment that you could receive. Regardless, you will have to file to get any stimulus money that might be due to you.
