Spouses of US citizens can benefit from a petition for alien relative.
This requires that there be a marriage and the petition requires evidence of the marital relationship.
The stand-alone petition is for situations when the spouse of the US citizen is outside of the US.
When the spouse of the US citizen is in the US, an Adjustment of Status application may be more appropriate.
A spouse petition submitted on its own goes through 2 stages: USCIS petition stage and Department of State processing.

A fiance visa, or "K-1" visa, allows a fiance of a US citizen to enter the US for the purpose of marrying the US citizen.
Fiance petitions have one of the highest approval rates of petitions submitted to USCIS and there are law offices and non-attorney legal service agencies touting 100% approval records or guaranteed approvals.
Still, not all applications are approved and great care should be taken to make sure all requirements are met before you submit the application.
If you are thinking about filing a K-1 visa petition for a fiance(e) living in another country, a consultation with an attorney will answer many of the questions you may have about the application process and ensure that the appropriate steps are taken toward permanent residency.
