How far in advance can I apply for a DTV?  If I plan on leaving at the end of November can I apply 3 months prior?  Is there a point of expiration if I don't enter the country in a certain time length?

Thank you!

TLDR : Answer Summary

You can apply for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) up to 3 months in advance of your intended departure. Once granted, the visa remains valid for entry into Thailand for up to 5 years, giving you ample time to plan your travel.
