It depends on a variety of factors. Did your ex-husband die as a resident of Illinois? What type of property does he own in India (e.g., real estate, bank accounts)? Through treaty, would India recognize Illinois letters of administration?

I advise you to consult with an attorney so that you may better understand your rights and options. Feel free to call me for a free consultation.

Under Illinois law his daughter is his heir, not his brothers and sisters. But I concur in Mr. Raminiak's answer.
