2013 NSF REU Stipend reported on a 1099-MISC in Box 7 ? Independent Conractor ?

<p>Thanks for the tip juillet, that sounds like a good way to approach this coming year. Hopefully I can talk to someone at the IRS this year and that will give me a better idea how to deal with this from now on. Of course I’ll report back here with any new information, hopefully from home and not in a white collar clink somewhere @-) </p>
