It has all changed. If your fiancee is in the US already, it'll be easier. I can't remember the timeline, but first you get a conditional resident alien card. Then after a while, there's an interview and you get the conditions removed. Then you're a permanent resident alien. Then you can apply for citizenship a while after that. I second the attorney advice- and be ready for the most frustrating beaurocracy ever, and endless, expensive forms. Keep a file and a diary of what you did and when. Keep duplicates of everything.

Good luck!

Paul.
