TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is seeking advice on obtaining a Non-O visa for themselves and their children as dependents of their husband, who holds a work visa in Thailand. Commenters suggest obtaining a Non-O visa based on 'trailing spouse' status, and recommend applying for a 90-day single entry Non-O visa either from the Thai consulate in their current country or at the local immigration office in Thailand after arrival.

you need documentation from his employer stating it's okay that you get a Non-O visa based on "trailing spouse" and the kids get them based on being dependents.

You can apply for 90 day single entry Non-O visas in the thai consulate of the country you're in BEFORE you wing your way here OR you can all come in and then apply for the 90 day Non-O visas at the immigration office where you live.

I'd say get the Non-O's before you come here if you can.

Once you get the 90 day Non-O visas you then wait until you have 30 days or less left and apply for a matching extension that your husband has at the immigration office

yes.

please have your marriage certificate and brith certificate of your children be legalized by your government before coming here. You need that when you will extend your visa here in Thailand.
