Carol,
I think your biggest issue is having the ability to defend why their
status changed. The IRS really scrutinizes individual who have a 1099
and a W2 from the same organization in the same year. I would think
this would be an audit concern with the funding agencies as well. You
would need to be able to justify why it was proposed one way, spent the
same way and then changed employment status of the individual. Goes
back to consistency in costing.
Best of Luck,
Sandra

If the consulting has already stopped and the person applies through
your regular competitive hiring practice, I don't see why you could not
hire him/her. I am assuming you mean as a regular employee with
benefits and not as a short-term contractor?

Subject: [RESADM-L] Consultant THEN employee?
I know there are labor laws, etc. that play into whether someone can be
a consultant then hired as an employee or vice versa. Does anyone know
if
there are grant rules prohibiting a single individual being paid as a
consultant then hired as an employee, both paid out of grant funds?
Presumably, this is easier to defend than the other way around but still
thought I should check.
This is a DOE grant to a non-profit so the university regs of no faculty
as consultants does not apply here.
Thanks for any insight you can provide!
