If you married before you son was 18, your husband can petition him.

If you married before your son turned 18, then your US citizen spouse could have petitioned for him or could still do it at this point.

If you married your present husband before your son turned 18 years old, your husband can petition for your son and he can apply for adjustment of status simultaneously. The petition should be filed before your son turns 21 years old.
