I filed a K-1 Visa back in June and plan on getting married in December. We haven't heard from the US government about our status. Can we proceed with getting married in december and change to a K-3 visa once he's in the country?

Hello. No you cannot. If you go to his country and marry and you will have to file a marriage case. You cannot proceed with the fiance visa if you get married. If you marry, that will take a year. The fiance visa normally takes 7-9 months for the alien to arrive in the US.
