Start by reading the guides at the top. You can file a petition for a K-1 visa for a fiance, or for an IR-1 visa for a spouse. Each has their pros and cons and you should research which best suits what you are looking to do.

Forget the K3, it is obsolete- if married, the spousal visa you'd be getting is the CR-1. Neither visa has a significantly better chance of geting approved. It is all about proving you have a bonafide relationship, and some of that is country dependant. For example, in Vietnam the consulate will want to see a big engagement ceremony (Dam Hoi), because that is the cultural norm there. Make sure to spend some time reading out Vietnam forum and talk to the experts there: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/136-vietnam/

There are no guarantees with either one.
