Depends on the reason.

 

if it was simply because you didn't have enough ties to your home country or so, no it won't affect k1 visa.

Denials for tourist visa's are relatively common.

 

Long as everything was truthful on the application, shouldn't cause any issues.

 

If there were lies/misrepresentation... then yes, definately can cause a problem.

So you lied at the interview and gave the a different reason?

 

That would be misrepresenting. And that may cause issues.

 

this process likes honesty more than anything...

 

 

you dont don't have a job (this is an ok reason)

 

you said you want to see your aunt, and they learnt you had a bf (this may taken as misrepresentation)

I concur with @Ben&Zian as well on this. If you were just denied then that is fine. I know from experience that it will NOT affect a K1 visa as long as you were being truthful during the whole process. Where some people mess up is that they try to lie in order to be approved such as saying they were married, and then for the K1 they are now all of a sudden single with no divorce or annulment.

I mean as long as they were convinced. And the only reason was the job. Then you have no worries.

Ahhh sige sige then yes this is very common in the Philippines to be denied for a tourist visa. My asawa was denied for her tourist visa as well to come vacation with me, and there was no problems when I filed for her K1 visa 6 months later. You just have to put down that you applied for a tourist visa previously and was denied. They can see it in the system so no sense in leaving it out.

Yeah she thought that you would come over and stay. Which they are supposed to think like that until you prove them otherwise.
