ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello 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.

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.
