Immigration Advice

I am working under a Student Visa here in the United States. I have been living with my girlfriend for the past two years, and we look forward to getting married sometime in the future. My employer has applied to sponsor me for a work visa but I'm concerned my application will not be selected. If that is the case, then my timer starts. My visa status expires in July 2021 and we both are trying to figure out what steps I can take to maintain my status. I have read a lot about this online and I am not sure what/which citizen pathway to follow. People talk about K1, K3 visas and fiance or spouse visa's. My major concerns are:

1) How long will it realistically take to get each visa approved?

2) How soon can I work after submitting the application? What is the best most efficient way to make sure I can continue working at my current job while the submitted forms are pending?

3) Would it be best and quickest to file for a fiance or spouse visa or to adjust my status in another way?

I am trying to stay on top for my things. Any advice is appreciated.

At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...
