What was your stepson's age when you got married to his father and what is his current age? Who is petitioning him?

How old is he? How old was he when you married?

If you married the father before the child was 18 you can submit an 130 petition for him and it will take about a year. IF not then the father can petition and that takes about 2 years. This is assuming your tag for IR/Cr visa is correct. There is no follow to join in the I130 based petition only the K series.

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.
