Your post is extremely confusing.

ALL members of the diplomatic core and their spouses have special procedures in place.

Is your brother in law an Indian citizen? A USC?

Again, confusing.

and you would expect the indian embassy to work directly with the DOS...

YMMV

so what kind of visa do you want your sister to have that you need assistance with?

Why is his diplomatic mission not doing this for her?

YMMV

1. So, what kind of visa do you wnt your sister to have that you need assitance with?

We don't know what kind of visa will be appropriate to my sister...

2. Why is his diplomatic mission not doing this for her?

Maybe because she's already here in the US, she needs to go back to Philippines to process according to them...

Then you have your answer. Do what the embassy tells her.

Family based immigration is not her answer as there is no basis for her husband to petition a visa for her. She needs a diplomatic visa to live in the US.

Sorry, but this is quite unbelievable. A Filipino citizen with a diplomatic visa to work at the Indian Embassy? Unlikely; highly so.

Agreed. no embassy would have anyone in a diplomatic core who was not a citizen of their country. they're civil servants when back home.

He cannot petition the USCIS for his wife to have any kind of residence because he isn't resident there. He is there as a guest of the US government.

Of course not. :thumbs:

So, either the dude is lying through his Filipino teeth and making up a completely ludicrous story; OR he works in the Indian Embassy as a non-diplomatic employee on a work visa --- also VERY , very unlikely.

I have a cousin who worked for a few years as a non-diplomatic employee at the Australian Embassy in Washington DC in 1985. She had a work visa. So it is possible.

I said unlikely, not impossible. You might want to read the entire post before replying ;)

I did not say impossible either. I said it was possible. You may also want to read my post again as you may have misread it.

And I was not trying to disagree with you when I posted that reply :no:
