TLDR : Answer Summary

You typically need to receive approval for your DTV visa first. After approval, you can reference your DTV visa number to apply for your wife and son as dependants. At walk-up consulates, all applications can be submitted simultaneously, whereas with eVisa online applications, you need to wait for your DTV approval before applying for your family's visas.

At walk up consulates you all can apply at the same time (they will take all the apps at once)

At eVisa online consulates you apply, get approved, then you go back in the system and apply for trailing spouse children using your DTV as documentation

Typically you'd need approval first, then reference your DTV visa number to apply for dependants and spouses. As always, contact the consulate you're using and ask about their preferred method to accomplish this route in an orderly manner.
