Im looking for information, if my family have non o based on my work permit and when I exit the country to apply for another non- B from another school… do i re apply for them too or i go out apply for non B myself only then extend with them
Answer summary
The individual is seeking clarification on the visa process for their family, who currently holds Non-O visas based on the individual's Non-O visa and work permit. They are questioning if, upon exiting Thailand to apply for a Non-B visa from a new employer, their family must also reapply for their Non-O visas or if they can step down from the individual's work visa status and extend their previous visas.

Doubtful you have a Non-B VISA and instead it's more likely you're on an "extension of stay" <-look at the stamp in your passport.

Your "piggy back" family members aren't on Non-O visas either they'd be on an extension of stay that matches yours

Which means IF you are leaving that employer you'd cancel ALL the extensions, exit/re-enter the country and everyone would start over from scratch. You with a new Non-B and them with new Non-O's based on you being employed here

Because your family is "piggy backing" on your extension when you change yours, theirs has to be changed too.
