I'm going to be starting an internship for my counseling masters program in a few months. Last week I met with the person who will be my supervisor for the internship and, to make a long story short, the internship will be paid and she offered me the option of being paid as a W2 employee or as a 1099 contractor. Is there any benefit to being paid as a 1099? There will be no difference in gross pay or other benefits no matter how its paid (and not a whole lot either - probably somewhere between 13k and 15k over the year that I'll be interning there). I'll also be working my regular full time job during this time and should gross somewhere around 50k between the job and internship.
I'm thinking that there's no real benefit to being a 1099 in this situation, is that right?
