Can you elaborate what is the issue?

I tried to place the family instance in my ceiling plan, it works fine.

Cheers,

The family is a ceiling based family. So you need to place it on a ceiling.

Also note that if the ceiling is inside a linked file than you can not use that to host your family.

Only face based families work through linked files.

These issues are one of the reasons we use most of the time unhosted families or face based families

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.

I converted your family to face based... hopefully this helps; there are videos on youtube showing how to do this if you are interested.
