I received a 1099-NEC for the first time, and really need help figuring out what to do with it.
INFO:
I'm in a construction union, employed full time by a contractor. My union hall asked me to attend a conference (first and only time this has happened). The 3 days I was away, the hall paid me my typical hourly rate, therefore I received a W-2. I've also just received a copy B of a 1099-NEC which was for the extra expenses I incurred on the trip (travel, lodging, meals, etc.) I paid for these expenses myself, and when I returned, I handed over my receipts and was reimbursed. This totals up to the amount reported on the 1099-NEC.
When I get to the screen that says "Do any of these uncommon situation apply?" I see several options, one of them being "This is not money earned as an employee or self-employed individual, it is from a sporadic activity or hobby (this is not common)."
Does this situation count as a sporadic activity? Do any of the choices listed on that page apply to me?
I'm so confused. Help!! lol

Please contact your Human Resources office. If the 1099-NEC represents reimbursed expenses, this isn't "compensation" at all. Reimbursed expenses are not taxable. Your HR department should know how to handle this.
