When PR forms were filled manually more than ten years ago, I did not declare my stepson as stepson but instead simply declared him as son. Because, at that time the question on family declaration form did not specifically appear requiring him to be declared as stepson. Since then, we landed and have already spent couple of years in Canada. We now realize that this could be a mistake potentially affecting future of him and all of us. What if this is voluntarily disclosed to IRCC now? Will they accept any justification?

Who was the primary applicant, you or your wife? Did you a provide a birth certificate for him at the time of application?
I don't think, based on your limited narrative, that this is an issue at all. Regardless of who the Principal Applicant was, the child would still have the same status of a dependent child, either of you, or your spouse. I see no misrepresentation here and don't believe that IRCC needs to be informed.
I agree that it is not a major concern, it appears to be an immaterial misrepresentation or an innocent mistake in the worst case.
