Has anyone ever been asked to submit a current paycheck to confirm current salary to a prospective employer before getting a formal offer? I feel like it's a bit much.

Taking away the part of they think i'm lying or not. Why should my future salary be based on past pay

like

Um there's zero chance I would ever do that. If they think I'm lying about my salary it means they don't trust their employees and I want no part of such a company.

Nope. That sounds ridiculous

Yep. And then I removed myself from the interview process.

^excellent point

Because if they low ball you, your first argument will be "i am already getting $X why should i even consider $X-10"

It's illegal for them to ask

Did you tell them what your salary was and now they're just trying to confirm? If so, you may as well send it because the cats out of the bag (unless you lied).

If you haven't told them anything, I'd ask what they plan to do with the information before providing... there's not really a great response for them.

I would find a way to get them to explain to me why this is needed or answer a question with a question. Not sure why that is relevant and would get them to tell me why they need this information.

EY definitely requests this.

2. The guilt of leaving a role where I have an amazing working relationship with all my colleagues and my boss

Any tips would be appreciated as I am a mess of nerves!!
