I have proof of this being a part of the application process. When asked in an email to the company on what grounds they asked about my relationship status they gave an absolute bs excuse:

"The purpose on the question is not focused on your relationship status. It is more about the support form your environment that can influence your stress resistance at work. You can treat this question as a question about the support from your closest friends, family, etc. The forming of the question can be a bit confusing, but this is the only purpose of asking about this."

So I also have the company admitting it in writing. I was not "chosen to go forward with" them. This question would have been an outright illegal and basis for a lawsuit in Finland. If it is not legal, to which agency/governmental institution should I contact regarding this issue?

There's a higher risk this is the way the company filters young professionals out of they're in risk of becoming pregnant in the near future.

That's why most of the comments agree this is a stupidly weird question, that opens the company up for potential discrimination laws
