    You can enter the United States on a fiancé visa. You cannot enter on a different visa then "adjust your status" to a fiancé visa.

    Can't change the status to K1. What you might be able to do is get married, then when your fiance returns to his home country, file an I-130 to try to get a spouse visa.

    Or, you could hold off on marriage, then when your fiance is back in his home country, file for a K1 visa so that he can come to the US to marry you.

    Consult an immigration attorney for more advice.
