I been doing research but still kind of confused.

From February to the end of the year in 2019 I was on per diem after hiring on with Schneider.

Now looking at my year end I got about $8,000 in per diem.

Looking at some threads and videos people are saying company drivers(me) can no longer claim per diem as a deduction.

Does that mean that we will owe and have to pay that per diem back?

Another question, does taking per diem mean you don't get your tax refund?

No it means you can't clam perform on your long from taxes.
They can still pay it you still add it.

A little confusing for some, but you can be paid
