I129F approved by USCIS then NVC sent back to them

[isko101 0]

I filed for my fiance I129F and we received the NOA2 end of January. The notice says it will take 4-6 weeks for the NVC to process it. Surprisingly, a month later, we received 2 letters. One for another NOA2 but with a different date, and an I-797C notice indicating that the USCIS has reaffirmed the previous decision (which is approved) as the Department of State has sent the petition back to the USCIS for some reason. 

 

I'm wondering if anyone else went through this. Why would the NVC send the petition back to the USCIS? 

 

Thank you.

I'm not sure why this happens, but we received a letter a few days later saying the USCIS re-affirmed the approval decision and re-send it to NVC for processing, called NVC a month later and got the NVC case and invoice#, last week got an email saying it's being sent to the embassy. I heard it could be the signature page or a stamp is missing that's why it gets returned to USCIS. Just give it time and they should fix the issue and send it back to NVC. Good luck!
