TLDR : Answer Summary

To apply for a Non-O visa based on your marriage to a Thai citizen and for the time with your Thai child, you initially need to apply for the Non-O visa at your home embassy or at a Thai embassy in a neighboring country. After obtaining the initial visa, you can then apply for a one-year extension at the local immigration office in Thailand.

You can also get a NON O, and 1 year extension of stay, based on your Thai child, provided you are the legal father.

Almost yes, you have to apply for an initial Non-O visa based on marriage, then apply for a 1-year extension for the same reason at the local immigration office.

You can apply for an initial Non-O visa at one of the following: the Thai embassy in your home country, the Thai embassy in a neighbouring country, or the local immigration office (except a few) in your province in Thailand.

Detailed requirements are different by location. Decide where you want to apply for your Non-O visa. Then you need to check their website (or contact them directly) for the requirements.
