Information on the number of Family: Partner applications, and the number of cases resolved (i.e. decisions, of which how many were granted or refused), is published quarterly. This is avalable at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/immigration-statistics-january-to-march-2017/list-of-tables#visas

It is not possible to separately identify applications made or decided under the previous or new rules. Not all of the family route statistics from 9 July 2012 onwards relate to the new Immigration Rules. Further details are provided in the ‘Family’ section of the User Guide to Home Office Immigration Statistics, available at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/user-guide-to-home-office-immigration-statistics--9
