The question

The statistics relate to applications and outcomes (grants, refusals, lapsed and withdrawn) of entry clearance visas for family reasons, and can be broken down by nationality.
Information on how many partner visas were rejected in each of the last five years, by nationality is available from Table Vis_D02, which can be found within the entry clearance visa applications and outcomes detailed dataset. The latest data relates to year ending June 2024 (Q2 2024).
