Giving a perspective from another country that is far more annoying in administrative terms (France), grant administration can be a real plus. I go through a non-profit in France, and they can take care of the taxes and the declarations, which would be a hassle. In addition, here being self-employed is really bad for many things you might want to do (rent a flat, get a loan, pay for unemployment funds), and having a real contract helps a lot with that.

Thank you for replying adamShimi and providing your perspective on this matter.
Regarding benefits, are there other things you desire beside grant administration and employment status?
