What was the reason given to her for being denied a tourist visa this last 3 times when she applied? And did she over stay her visa when she was in the us last time?

It is very weird because whenever she asked officers ,their responds were " sorry not this time" they didnt tell any reason .And she came here with 3 months visa but stayed only 28 days .

Yes you can file now. A tourist visa denial should have no effect on a K1, unless she lied.

Perhaps her ties to Turkey had changed? Not sure. But single females from other countries traveling to the US alone are a red flag to them. They believe they will come here to stay without proper procedure. Frequent visits may have them believe there is a love interest here for her. Happened to me many years ago. But applying for a fiance visa should not cause issue. I was denied entry into the US long before I got my greencard and then citizenship. Everything after went smoothly as I followed procedure.

Good luck!

My husband is from Turkey also. I was going to do a K-1 Visa but talked to 3 lawyers here in the USA and they all said it would be better to Marry first. That the chances are greater they will say no. But for us it was because he is a 30 years old and Muslim that they will want to reject a K-1. But it we are married they wouldn't reject it. I don't think that's fair but......I got married to be safe.
