The prohibited bases of discrimination under the ECOA are the following: race; color; religion; national origin; sex; marital status; age (provided that the applicant has the capacity to enter a binding contract); the applicant’s receipt of income through a public assistance program; and the good faith exercise of the applicant of a right under the federal Consumer Credit Protection Various state laws also govern fair lending, which makes it an unlawful discriminatory practice for any creditor to discriminate against any such applicant because of the race, creed, color, national origin, sexual orientation, military status, age, sex, marital status, disability, or familial status of such applicant in the granting, withholding, extending or renewing, or in the fixing of the rates, terms or conditions of, any such credit; to use any form of application for credit or use or make any record or inquiry which expresses, directly or indirectly, any limitation, specification, or discrimination as to race, creed, color, national origin, sexual orientation, military status, age, sex, marital status, disability, or familial status; to make any inquiry of an applicant concerning his or her capacity to reproduce, or his or her use or advocacy of any form of birth control or family planning; to refuse to consider sources of an applicant’s income or to subject an applicant’s income to discounting, in whole or in part, because of an applicant’s race, creed, color, national origin, sexual orientation, military status, age, sex, marital status, childbearing potential, disability, or familial status; or to discriminate against a married person because such person neither uses nor is known by the surname of his or her spouse.
