I got separated from my ex-wife back in March 2017, filed for divorce in June 2017 but on my divorce decree, it says the marriage officially ended in December 2017.

 

I started seeing my fiancee in August 2017, which is earlier than the final divorce date on my decree, but by that time I'd already been long separated from my ex-wife.

 

I'm getting ready to send my K-1 Visa application to bring my fiancee but will they deny our application since I began my relationship with my fiancee before the date my previous marriage ended according to the divorce decree?

It won't impact the I-129F at all. It's possible they would ask about it, but if you were separated already then I doubt it would be an issue. Just bring plenty relationship evidence, as anybody should do anyway.

You are fine to submit the petition as long as you both are free to marry at the time of the filing

YMMV
