ORIGINAL POSTERHello I'm on a non B teaching visa with a work permit. When that expires 30th April.
Because I can't go across to Laos for a tourist visa. What are my visa options? Although I am not married I have two children here. Would I be able to apply for any type of visa or extension using my children's Thai birth certificates, that have my name on? Your advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is on a Non-B teaching visa expiring on April 30 and cannot leave for Laos to get a tourist visa. They seek advice on extending their stay in Thailand, asking if they can apply for a visa or extension using their Thai-born children's birth certificates. Responses indicate that they may qualify for a Non-O guardian visa if they can show sufficient funds, or a 60-day family extension as the father of half-Thai children.

you could get a 60 day visit thai family extension by being the father of half thai children. ONCE.

Tod as a follow up clarification, could you do the 60 extension for visiting children once, and then 60 days again for marriage if married to a Thai?

Yes, you should qualify for a non-o guardian visa if you can show 400k in the bank.
