There are several avenues for you to bring your son to the U.S. How fast you can do it will depend on how old he is and whether or not he is married. The amount of information you've provided does not permit for a detailed assessment of your case. Please consult with and consider hiring an immigration attorney to assist you in identifying the best strategy for your son to come to the U.S. Inform the attorney of your son's age and his marital status. Besides these two issues, there may be other obstacles. Please be completely honest and up front with your attorney. Attorneys who practice immigration law are practicing federal law and therefore you can hire an attorney from anywhere in the country (as long as he/she is licensed).
