PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Visas: Ahmadiyya (22 July 2021)

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what estimate she has made of number of UK Spouse Visas (a) issued and (b) rejected using a marriage certificate issued by Nazart Islah-o-Irshad Rishta Nata of Sadr Anjuman Ahmadiyy in Rabwah, the managing body of Ahmadiyya Community in Pakistan, in each of the last five years.

Home Office Migration Statistics do not capture the number of UK Spouse Visas (a) issued and (b) rejected using a marriage certificate issued by Nazart Islah-o-Irshad Rishta Nata of Sadr Anjuman Ahmadiyy in Rabwah, the managing body of Ahmadiyya Community in Pakistan, in each of the last five years.

To capture numbers would require a manual trawl of data and to do so would incur disproportionate cost.
