A lot will depend on how long you want to stay in Thailand.

DTV is in fact just a tourist visa, which can be used for up to 5 years as long as you comply with the visa requirements, but it is not meant to live in Thailand for undefined time.

When that is your purpose you might apply for a real long time visa.

You will need the required funds for each individual applying for a visa. Must be frozen in bank account for minimum 3 months. Many embassies are now requiring 6 months untouched. If your husband is going for muay thai, they will require showing proof of his program enrollment. Some schools will help with his visa. However, many people are having visa denied or downgraded because the program is not long enough.

14-Year-Old Son (Online Schooling):  Incorrect. This is your primary hurdle. Thailand does not recognize online schooling as a valid basis for an independent study visa, nor can a minor live in Thailand without a legal visa tied to a physical institution.The Solution: Since he is 14 (under 20), he should absolutely apply as a DTV dependent under your husband. He will receive a dependent DTV just like you,
