After the the alien fiance is no longer an alien but a citizen of the united states.

To many American English speakers, "intimate" implies a sexual relationship. I am sure you mean otherwise and should use "close" or a similar term to describe your relationship to avoid stares.

The question is simple: When can I, the alien fiance, bring my mother to the US after we get married? I don't talk to my dad because of some issues, so I don't really care about him.

You won't be able to do that until after you are a US citizen. So you have to go through the process of naturalization first. Only US citizens can apply for parents. So depending on how long you have been a permanent resident, it is going to take some time.

And  you didnt think about this before filing? 

My fiance told me it'd take about a year but you guys are telling me otherwise.. I didn't research as I trusted him. It's okay though. we'll probably visit her while we're married and pass time together, we'll make it through.

Just so you know. Once you get married and file for AOS - you CANNOT leave US until you either receive travel permit or green card. It WILL take months.

I see. A year of waiting is easier than 3 years. Or maybe she'll visit us... We'll sort it out when the day comes.

Jeez, it's gonna be tough as I'm very intimate with my mother.

Thank you all.

You could flip the situation in a jiffy. The USC fiancee applies for a 'greencard' in your country, which would guarantee you remain close to your mother.
