Thread: Number of people refused a visa

Hello
I am trying to find out the number of people who are refused a permanent visa every year, just an average figure will do or a % of the total number that apply.

Anyone know where I can find that information?

Does anyone have a link to the newspaper that the names are published in, I think I could do a random sample and get some idea, as I believe they list all the names and then say accepted or refused.

Thanks

Which country you are talking about? Visas refused in Brazil? Or everywhere????
