ORIGINAL POSTER[ED Visa + 2 followers?]
Hi Visa Wizards! Anyone can confirm that an ED Visa can have 2 followers in case the ED visa holder is married (non thai) and has a 3 year old son (all EU pasports)? Could they both get O visa as dependents? Thank you in advance!

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user inquired whether they could have two dependents (a spouse and child) obtain O Visas based on the holder's ED Visa status. The discussion explored the eligibility of dependents for visas linked to education and provided insights into prior experiences with dependent visas from various commenters.

ORIGINAL POSTEROk, in that case parents should have both ED Visa, and what's the situation with the kid? can he get a non-O?

The good thing is kids under 15 can't be fined for overstay, and kids under 18 can't be banned for overstay.
While this sounds strange, all I'd do is have the child fly in on a 30 day visa exempt stamp and overstay. :O

I personally have never seen anyone get Non-O's for the purpose of "piggy-backing" onto a parent or spouse that holds a Non-ED visa for studying at a private language school.
I'm not saying it couldn't happen, BUT I'm saying of the hundreds and hundreds of people I know on ED visa/extensions I've never seen it ever
