Is this common for an interview?

Are you for reals??!
Your logic on this is so very flawed that I truly wonder if you are making up nonsense to stir up another notorious DCUM debate.

A). Just because someone has maxed out their credit cards does not equate = thief.
It is not a red flag in any shape or form that said individual will steal from another.
Flawed logic = Unfair stereotype.

B). Nannies do not have access to family bank account info.
They do not pay family bills nor do they do any family accounting activity.

No offense to you, but you are just W-R-O-N-G on so many levels on this.

People OK you win, and you are correct regarding nannies. If you would read my whole comment I said it is not common to ask nannies for credit info. No worries, I just thought I would throw it out that in other areas of domestic service this is a common question especially if you are going to have access for a families bank account that many household managers have. Again you do not have to agree and that is OK, I am done here and thanks for all the insults.

I never ever gave a credit card bill??? Drivers license yes

I bet they are simply trying to validate your address-- the same way the DMV or others ask for a CC statement or utility bill to show proof of residency. I think if you asked them to clarify the intent, you'd get a much better sense of the reason.

Are all nannies so suspicious? I mean, you should always use caution, but I think asking them if there is another option than showing a cc statement is the starting point, rather than to "run for the hills"
