You have to all apply individually. Generally one person applies for whatever reason then their spouse and kids apply after they are approved. Spouse must actually be married not just a partner

The website for consulate in Sofia was updated August last year and clearly points to the evisa website to apply for visas and information on visa requirements and gives a minimum processing time of 21 working days. The evisa website lists the requirements for a Non-O based on being over 50 including the 800k requirement.

I actually meant after denying you entry,if you try again later. It's a work of moments to flag someone in their database

@John ******
while that might be true immigration can certainly make it very difficult, if not impossible, for someone to enter the country

@Trayn ****
so your wife isn't Thai. Your Non-O is what is called a dependant visa (not a marriage visa) and you can't work inside Thailand on that visa at all. If all of your work is done remotely then get the DTV not the Non-O.

the grace period is only for filing the report. There is no grace period for the 90 days. If you are inside Thailand for 90 consecutive days (including the day of entry) you are legally obliged to report

Which type of Non-O visa will you have? If it's for marriage you could potentially get a work permit via a Thai company. If it's based on being over 50 you can't work inside Thailand. If you will work entirely remotely then get the DTV

You can't work for any entity inside Thailand on a DTV. You would need to convert the DTV to a Non-B visa at an immigration office inside Thailand with support from the school. If the school won't support your application for a Non-B inside Thailand you won't be able to apply for it outside Thailand as you can't hold 2 visas at the same time
