Dept Education- Fulbright-Hays grants? Farnsworth, Franci 09 Jun 2000 15:43 EST

I need advice about how to handle the "maintenance allowance" on
Fulbright-Hays awards.      In the past our awards have been short-term and
we've treated "maintenance allowance" as sabbatical salary (which offsets
funds already in the College budget).   But we're about to get an 11 month
award.    If we treat the "maintenance allowance" as salary we're looking at
some payroll tax expense not covered by the grant or any institutional
budget.      Do we have any other
options?
