Combining individuals plans to Family’s plan

I recently upgraded my phone to an iPhone 14 and my mother has a iPhone 13. We both are under the same account but we have separate plans. Both of our plans are the same (AT&T unlimited Starter plan). I Plan to add my fiancé to our account and wanted to know if it is possible to combine all 3 lines into a family plan and still keep all benefits like unlimited 5G data with no restrictions, unlimited hotspot, and unlimited texts  calls and to North and South America. Also wanted to know if this will increase my monthly cost or if it will lower it by having everything as a family plan. Currently my monthly cost is about $200 

($140 for the Unlimited starter plans, $50 for the phone payments, $20 for insurance and a -$20 for auto bill and paperless discount). How much can I expect my monthly payment to increase or decrease by combining all 3 lines into a family package?

if it is possible to combine all 3 lines into a family plan and still keep all benefits like unlimited 5G data with no restrictions, unlimited50 gigs of hotspot, and unlimited textscalls and to North and South America.   

Texting to non-US numbers is included for over 210 countries. Calls from the United States to other countries is not. If you call outside the United States on a regular basis on any of your phone lines you should add the $15 long-distance plan to that phone line.   

The premium plan includes roaming in 19 Latin American countries, as well as Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands.   Just a warning do not abuse the 19 Latin American country option. People have been shut off for excessive roaming because they spend half of the year in South America. They were shut off after 3 months.

Also wanted to know if this will increase my monthly cost or if it will lower it by having everything as a family plan. Currently my monthly cost is about $200 

You didn't say what is included in your $200 monthly bill.  So no idea.  But I believe I've provided enough information for you to the rest of the calculations on your own

It sounds like you're looking for unlimited premium, the base cost for three lines is 180 before taxes fees and cost of phones. You can probably shave $30 off of that if you sign up for any discount program. It will take $10 off per line with AARP or pretty much anything else.  That would take it down to 150 before taxes fees and phone cost, before the addition of any long distance plan, or insurance, or early upgrade fee.

You may need to do a transfer of billing responsibility so that you are all on one plan with one account owner. The account owner is the person who must qualify for any eligible discounts. AARP will take anyone doesn't matter how old they are
