>A lot depends how you are paid and how the company accounts for it. When the company pays your taxes there is NO doubt. If the company issues a 1099 to you at the end of year, than it can be a grey area. If the check is cut a company (Your own consulting firm), than you own (based upon earlier messages on this thread).

It also makes a difference whether you do most of your work on- or offsite. The IRS has a set of 21 rules specifying when a person is really an employee, though they make think they're just a contractor.
