Compensation
Actual employment for services rendered
Examples: teaching assistant, lab assistant
In these cases, individual receives a salary and it is not considered stipend supplementation
![Page 31: NRSA and Stuff Jeff Thurston, NIAMS (thurstoj@mail.nih.gov)thurstoj@mail.nih.gov Monte Parham, NIAMS (Parhamm@mail.nih.gov)Parhamm@mail.nih.gov Cynthia](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102718/56649c995503460f9495638e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Can compensation be provided from an NIH grant?
Yes, limited part-time basis May not be same research that is part of
planned experience Fellowship sponsor or Training Grant
Program Director must approve May not interfere with, detract from, nor
prolong the approved NRSA training

Stipend Taxability
IRS (not NIH) has domain over interpretation & implementation
Rules changed January 1, 1987; however interpretations seem to vary even among IRS offices
NIH Grants Policy Statement provide minimal guidance but individuals should really consult local IRS offices
![Page 33: NRSA and Stuff Jeff Thurston, NIAMS (thurstoj@mail.nih.gov)thurstoj@mail.nih.gov Monte Parham, NIAMS (Parhamm@mail.nih.gov)Parhamm@mail.nih.gov Cynthia](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102718/56649c995503460f9495638e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Employee Benefits
Since stipends are not provided as a condition of employment, it is inappropriate and unallowable to charge NRSA grants for employee benefits—FICA, workman’s comp, unemployment insurance etc.
