Hello AhmadSeyar,
thank you for your question. Unfortunately, I do not know the residency regulations in Poland. I would recommend contacting a counseling center in Poland to see if your residency status allows you to come to Germany, if not, they might be able to help you find another option. Where in Poland are you currently staying?
To stay in Germany and join your family on a long-term basis, you will have to receive a residence permit from Germany.
You can receive a residence permit, for example, for work or studies. We have complied a list of long-term visas to Germany here: https://handbookgermany.de/en/immigration
I hope this information was useful.
If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to ask us.
Best wishes

Hello AhmadSeyar, I have some additional information for you. One way to move to Germany and join your family would be by applying for the EU permanent residency. In polish this would be called: Pobyt rezydenta długoterminowego – UE
However, the requirements are quite high. You can read about the requirements here: https://handbookgermany.de/en/permanent-eu-residence-permit
I hope this information was useful.

Hello tash779, thank you for your question. We have tried to answer a similar question from someone else who wants to bring their fiance to Germany here: https://together-in-germany.de/en/thread/family-reunification-ss22b-afg…
Maybe the answer will be useful for you. If you are not yet married, generally, you cannot apply for family reunification.
I would suggest your fiance seeks out counseling in Germany to see if there is a possibility for family reunification.
She can search for an advice center, near her, here: https://handbookgermany.de/en/local-information
If you have further questions please let me know.
Best wishes
