k1 K1 changed from non immigrant to immigrant

[Mehrdad576 18]

So our K1 was under AP for a month. Two weeks ago got an email to bring the passport and the status changed to non immigrant application received. Two days ago it changed back to refused and immigrant visa. They have the passport. The embassy is Tbilisi Georgia. Any idea why it changed back to immigrant visa?

Best guess is an error.

The create dates for both images above are different.

K-1 visas are legally dual intent non immigrant visas.  To varying degrees, embassies process K-1 visa applications as immigrant visas.  For example, unlike some other dual intent non immigrant visas, it is expected a K-1 will immigrate, and some COs will explicitly ask K-1s if they intend to immigrate to the US. 
 

There is nothing to be alarmed about.   You will not be issued a CR-1 / IR-1.

K-1 visas are processed by the immigrant visa section of the consulate.  This is normal.   It is not an error.

Usually the change from non-immigrant to immigrant visa is the last step before getting a final decision.
