Hi,

All sponsorship petitions and applications such as petition for alien relative, adjustment of status application, employment authorization and advance parole document applications, biographic questionnaires, affidavit of support, etc. are filed concurrently with the USCIS. If filed properly and on a timely basis, your fiancee can continue to remain legally in the U.S. even after I-94 expires, as well as be employed and have ability to travel (about 3 months after filing) and enter the U.S. again while the sponsorship paperwork is being adjudicated.
