Rule 161-6.3 - Credit inquiries

(1) A credit application or credit interviewer may inquire as to age, disability, sex or marital status provided the inquiry is made in good faith for a nondiscriminatory purpose. Any inquiry which expresses directly or indirectly any limitation, specification, or discrimination as to age, disability, sex or marital status shall be unlawful.

(2) The information required to be given by the applicant for credit should be limited to what is necessary for determining the applicant's financial conditions and prospects for repayment regardless of the applicant's age, color, creed, national origin, race, religion, marital status, sex or physical disability. The consent of a spouse shall not be required where the applicant is otherwise eligible for credit.
