I recently didn't renew a contract on which I have had B visa extensions for the past 5 years. I went to Laos and obtained a 2 mth tourist visa. I am paper married to a Thai lady and we have a child. Can I go back to Laos when the tourist visa finishes and get a 3 mth non immigrant O visa.

Yes. Take along the marriage certificate/copy and copy of wife ID card and child birth certificate. If you go to Penang or Kuala Lumpur you might even obtain a multi entry but would take the kitchen sink in that case (copy home register/note from wife asking for visa issue/bank passbook to show you have some funds). Probably not required but good to have if asked.
