Does this information also apply to strike pay on a 1099-NEC?
Strike pay is taxable, but is not subject to self-employment taxes. To post a 1099-NEC.

I am helping my son with his taxes and I was looking at the thread you had on 1099-misc for strike pay. Where do you deduct the amount that he paid the union towards a strike fund? Is he allowed to just deduct it from the 1099? That doesn't seem right.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act eliminated the Unreimbursed Business Expense deduction for tax years 2018-2025, so this amount is not deductible for your son in 2021.
Can union dues be deducted from strike pay?
No. Strike pay is not considered self-employment income and unreimbursed business expenses for non-self-employed persons have been eliminated for tax years 2018 - 2025.
