Yes that is true. Just as a USC married to a Canadian I am not allowed by your country to bring my personal possessions into Canada without having the proper landing papers.

A K-1 timeline varies according to where your fiancee lives in the US. Also you can be denied entry to the US if the agent at the POE suspects you are entering the US to marry a USC and remain in the US without first having the proper K-1 visa.
