IRS will have problem/issue if you are sending money from US. not while bringing to US.
they might ask you to verify your source of income but $100k is not a TRIGGER that would cause it. unless you are transferring numerous $100k's

1. nepal still has a regulated foreign currency system i.e.
   a. you cannot buy any foreign currency without approval from NRB
   b. you cannot sell any foreign currency without disclosing your source.

2. to bring large amount of US $ from nepal. officially you have to go to NRB and get a certification letter. then you can go to Commercial bank to buy the specified foreign currency before you can transfer abroad. you can transfer any amount if you have approval.

3. another way is to via hundi or people. you give them NRS in Nepal and collect US $ in US.
