Australian citizen - I am applying for a DTV for me then will apply for visas for my husband and 2 children.

Only if you do it yourself or know the answer - 

Can your spouse return to Australia a couple of times a year if you don't? 

Cheers

Answer summary

An Australian citizen applying for a DTV visa can have their spouse and children travel independently. Each family member, including the spouse, receives their own DTV visa, allowing them to enter and exit Australia multiple times without being tied to the primary DTV holder's travel plans.

Everyone has their own Visa and are free to travel or stay or leave or come independent of the other family members

Sure, about the only thing he won't be able to do is extend at an immigration office inside Thailand unless you also extend
