Almost there. My question was actually concerning the expected benefits from affiliating with an independent researcher institute. For example, an independent researcher would expect to receive grant administration (if funded) and virtual infrastructure services as benefits from Theiss Research in exchange for their affiliation.
Please let me know if there is a need for further clarification.
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.

Oh cool, that is what you were asking. I guess Steve’s got you covered, then; I don’t really know any more about it.
Yes. Thank you for your time and replying to my question.

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?
