class Survey < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :questions, :dependent => :destroy
  accepts_nested_attributes_for :questions, :reject_if => lambda { |a| a[:questions].blank? }, :allow_destroy => true
end

question.rb

# app/models/question.rb
class Question < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :survey
end

surveys_controller.rb

# app/controllerss/surveys_controller.rb

  def new
    @survey = Survey.new
    @survey.questions.build
  end

  def edit
  end

  def create
    @survey = Survey.new(survey_params)

    respond_to do |format|
      if @survey.save
        format.html { redirect_to @survey, notice: 'Survey was successfully created.' }
        format.json { render :show, status: :created, location: @survey }
      else
        format.html { render :new }
        format.json { render json: @survey.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }

      </ul>
    </div>
  <% end %>

:reject_if => lambda { |a| a[:questions].blank? }

a variable is a hash of attributes which will be passed to a question record. Your question model has no questions field, hence a[:questions] is always blank and the record it is rejected. Instead, do:

:reject_if => :all_blank
