Deductions & credits

I am the Charmain of my retiree group, (this is a voluntary non-paying position).   Two maybe three time per year I attend a conference that is part of the educational/information part of the position.  Attendance is necessary to keep all the retirees in the group updated with any changes benefits.  example, medical, pensions, 401k etc.  filing and procedures.  We have a per deim of 46 dollars per day  and 20 dollars for our return day.   Many times a meal may be furnished and that is deducted from the per-deim.  It does matter where you participate in the meal or not it is available and therefore it is deducted from the per-deim.  The rates of per-deim fall well under what is outlined in the I.R.S. codes.   Why do I receive a 1099-NEC and why am I required to file.  There is not a good explanation when I enter this info into my Turbo-Tax.
