More details to this question:
I met my fiance in Iran when I went to take care of my mother who had cancer. The process took so long (9 months) until she got better and I could come back to the U.S. and now since I came back, I still have no job. I am trying to bring him here, but do not know how!?

You need to file a petition, and obtain an sponsor for the affidavit of support.

If you do not have a job, you will need to have a co-sponsor who will be able to guarantee that your fianc will not be a public charge when he arrives in the U.S. The first stage petition will take several months so you have some time to begin employment which you can then show at the time of the Affidavit of support.

You can petition your fiance by filing an I-129K (Fiance Petition). Since you are unemployed you will need a co-sponsor when it comes time to file the Affidavit of Support. A co-sponsor can be a relative or friend, and must be a US Citizen or Legal Permanent Resident, and be over 18 years old.
