Sponsor is not the problem.   The problem is that classification is subject to annual quotas and the line in front for the Philippines is very very very long

Can you clarify, do you mean you have a green card based on an ir1 visa? Or you only have the visa and you haven’t entered the US yet (which doesn’t make sense if you’re divorced?)

Re waiting time, see F2B https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin/2019/visa-bulletin-for-february-2019.html  

for philippines in this category they are currently processing cases from July 2007.

(if your son is already 20 he will certainly age out of F2A)

note that as long as you have a green card only the petition will only remain valid if he stays single. (If you become a citizen then it’s ok if he marries, but then petition changes to F3, which currently adds yet another 12 years to the waiting time)

You would file an i130 and then wait for the priority date to become current

You mean, you have a 10-year green card, I presume. The ir1 is the visa you used to enter the US to get that green card. 

I’m not trying to be difficult, but it matters to get it right for people to give the right advice. (If you only had an ir1 visa and no green card you could not yet apply for your son)

I have a green card for ten years and I been here for almost 7 yrs in United States.
