Is there any legal way to receive money, say an amount of $50,000, from Nepal? Say my parents want to transfer this amount to my bank account here.
From what I have heard, Hundi is the only way. But when we use Hundi, won't the sender's name be different from y parents' name? And if that is the case, how can I claim that it is the money sent by my parents as their name will not appear anywhere in the bank- transfer information?

U have to know that hundi is illegal in nepal.

So what are the options to receive money from Nepal then?

Legally ? NO.

get it wired from third country.

Its difficult to receive money from Nepal , it's nothing to do with USA. It's Nepal that doesn't allow money to be sent without a reason and "I want to buy a house is not a reason ". Here is the policy , " It is not in the interest of Nepal, a third world country with very poor economy to send money out to a developed nation'. They only wanna receive , not send.

See if you can contact Standard Chartered bank as they have a branch somewhere in TX. Having an account there might help transferring between the locations. It's just a hunch.

If you are serious we can help each other out.

I can receive money by hundi. It is not a problem. But the money comes from HongKong and I am from Nepal. If ever there is a check on my bank account, I cannot even claim that it was money sent by my parents after selling their land. My parents name will be nowhere on the sender's information.
