Yes, she would need to pay tax. she can deposit the $200,000 check in India. she would need to pay tax in India. I would recommend breaking the amount up into cash, deposit some of it in a bank in the US, and rest take it back in the form of cash and checks and deposit in the Indian bank. you can call state bank ((212)-521-3318) for further options.
