No, it's not a walk-able distance. O'Hare Aiport has a transit system called Airport Transit System (ATS) which connects all of it's five terminals. Stops are made at all the terminals as well as at the remote parking lot E. There is no charge for the use of the ATS.

Dear experts, I have a Ugandan winner who was forwarded to me by Aimanda7, we met and he had this complication where we need to advice him together as a family.
When he was filling the initial DV application in Oct 2013, he was working in Rwanda but he had left the family (wife and 1kid ) in Kampala, so he says that he was unable to access them to get their photos so he filled the forms as a single. When he got selected, he filled the forms for himself , wife and Kid and sent them to KCC plus a letter explaining the situation of not being able to obtain the photos at the time of registration.
They did not reply the letter but on the Second NL, they included the Wife and the Kid. He is about to travel to NRB for medicals
Question
Will that scenario cause him any problem/compromise the issuance of his visa.
He is about to travel to NRB for medicals so your real time responses are welcome and thanks in advance.

Failure to include family members in initial entry can lead you to a debial as you know!
In his case it is gonna be very risky i must say, but i would still give it a go... Because he needs to convince them that its real family he would need to do dna test for his child.
I have read a similar case in previous thread...
Its just my opinion family good luck to your friend

Clearly according to what you wrote it seems He broke all those 3 rules for not listing his Spouse and the kid on his initial application which may lead to an outright denials for all of them.
Did the wife get the kid after or before October 2012. If she gave birth after Oct 2012 it may help because the could say that they married after the initial application.
Any correction on my logic explanation is welcomed.

This is a tricky one. Technically he should be disqualified but under the circumstances what I would suggest is that he call the embassy to ask their advice, there is a small possibility they may be lenient as you cannot submit forms without photos. But I would definitely try get an answer before spending all that money on medicals, transport and visa fees because that could be an expensive denial.

I would give 5% succes if he can come with a solid explanation to conce the CO.
But because its a life time chance i would still go for it although it cost hell lot of money.

I think he should look for a way to contact the embassy before he appears for the interview/medicals... It's risky and a family of 3 will definitely cost him lots of money.

Hi Family2133 Let me congratulate your friend for the 2nd NL. As the wife and kid have already been included in the 2nd NL, I would say it’s a miracle as the person in KCC who handled his file already believes his story. He has one foot already in America he just needs to get the next foot in. Let him gather all the evidence to prove that he is indeed married to the wife and the baby is his. If he uses his passport to cross the UG/Rwanda boarder or some sort of document each time. Let him photocopy the pages of entry and exit stamps showing he was out of the country then. If he has a letter showing his employment in Rwanda and pay slips let him take them too. Any receipts from the landlord of rental payment in Rwanda let him get them. Tell him to collect anything that can prove he leaves in Rwanda. Tell him to do the same for the wife where she stays in Kampala.
If the visa processing money will not leave him bankrupt. I would say its better going through with the GC than leaving with what if??? I have seen reality documentaries of illegal immigrants paying thousands of dollars to be smuggled through the boarders just to be caught at the boarder entry point. And they still try again and again. So if he has that dream burning inside let him go for it. The reason for saying this is because of my testimony.
Here it goes.
One day I needed to get a Schengen visa urgently. I had the option of sending my documents to the embassy or go in person. So I opted to send the documents as I did not have enough cash to travel all the way. A week later my documents were sent back with a denial. The embassy’s reason was I needed to give them enough time to process the visa. The date of travel was in two weeks’ time but they needed three weeks for processing. I went to the website and booked an appointment online, going in person to the embassy meant you left with the visa that same day. A few days later I went to the embassy.
My appointment was like 7 am. There were no buses or trains that could get me there on time. I was leaving 100's of miles away. I couldn't afford a hotel room as my cash was limited, so my option was to go all the way to the airport and spend a few hours there in the waiting room.
On the day of the interview I was there on time. The first lady to screen my documents at the embassy told me I didn't qualify for the visa. Her reason I had insufficient documentation and my visa in UK was running out in less than 3 months which disqualified me as well. The lady was very angry when I told her I wanted to continue the visa process knowing very well I was not qualified. She later told me to go home and to stop wasting their valuable time. I continued to pay the visa fees and sat down till I was called to another window. After being called to the second window the guy told me that he was sorry I had not qualified. Relentlessly I continued to the final window to face the CO. The Co checked my documents and said I was not qualified for the visa issuance. With an intervention from heaven I remember I spoke a sentence to the CO, something I had not thought of and I had no control off, Halleluyah!!! I left the embassy with the visa 3 hours later.
The only question I think he needs to ponder about is DV Lottery is an online affair, so the wife should had taken the photos in UG emailed them to him, for him to use in the application??? But if your friend has a mustard seed faith….and 0.005% chance with the Visa. I will join him in prayer…I have seen undeserving people walk away with visas including me..… he really needs the prayers!! With God all things are possible!!!!.....

Partitas , I am a professional M&E specialist, so if I carry out the Monitoring and Evaluation of the projects I work for , how can I fail to monitor and Evaluate my self/family. In monitoring we do the baseline assessment (the before) and the end line assessment (the after), so I have assessed myself/family before leaving for US (baseline assessment), then I will give it 5 years and carry out another assessment then I will sit down to compare, if the assessment results will indicate a decline, I will return to my mother land for sure.
NOTE; I have taken a family photo, I will take another one after 5 years and compare hahhahhaaa

Thank you Utamaduni, We shall spend the night at Doha, the Hotel shuttle is supposed to pick us and take us to a hotel, which means they will need to stamp for us Qatar visas. Then it will bring us back in the morning and then set off for Chicago, all the hotel charges and the food is covered within the ticket fare.
