    Hello em:

    Yes, the form of payment makes no difference...

    However, you're confusing what a w2 or a 1099 does. The w2 reports wages paid to an employee where taxes have been withheld. A 1099 reports payments made on a contract, and NO taxes have been withheld.

    It IS possible for an individual to have worked for the same employer during the past year, BOTH as an employee AND as a contractor.
