Re: stepson petition
Yes, your husband may file petitions on behalf of each of your sons. Since these would be considered immediate relative petitions, there is no quota. It is a 2 step process, involving first filing an immigrant visa petition in the U.S. (which may take up to 9 months for approval), and then having immigrant visa interviews in Manila.
We would be happy to assist you and your sons in this process.

Responding to this inquiry in no way establishes an attorney client relationship; however, I look forward to exploring these issues with you further by way of telephone consultation.

Re: stepson petition
Yes, he may file for your children since the marriage took place before their 18th birthday.
My legal fee is $950 for such a case. Please feel free to contact me or take a look at my web site at http://www.msclaw.com for general information.
