The first step will be to confirm eligibility. Analysis of that important details requires information not supplied in your question. Assuming eligibility exists, generally the next steps involve the filing of a K-1 visa application that would enable a fiance to enter the U.S. to marry a U.S. citizen within the required time, and then the filing of an Adjustment of Status application. Applications must be properly prepared and fully documented, and it would be wise to work with an immigration attorney for this process. Some immigration law firms, including mine, offer legal services on a "flat fee" basis so that a client will know the total expense from the very beginning, and a few immigration law firms, including mine, offer an initial consultation free of charge.

To start the process, you need to file a fiance petition with USCIS and submit evidence that you are a citizen, evidence that you have met your fiance in person within the last 2 years immediately preceding the filing of the petition, and evidence that you and your fiance have a bona fide relationship and that you intend to get married within 90 days of your fiance's entry into the US. After the petition has been filed, your fiance will need to apply for a K-1 visa at the US consulate.
