This is an uncommon message that is likely informing you that an international package has cleared import hurdles and is now located at a local facility within the United States. In general, it’s just an update that is showing you that the shipping process is humming along without any grave errors.
Basically, this message means that USPS is working with a company to process a return. Typically, the returns agent is a middleman that scans the package as a retail return and ensures that it makes it to the right person with the original sending company. In short, the return is processing.
If the package is on USPS, then there will be a tracking message that says the package has been seized by law enforcement. With other carriers, it is more likely that you will receive a message requesting that you contact the carrier. In that conversation, they will explain the situation in more detail.

In short, the message means that you will not be receiving your package on time. UPS uses this message to indicate that the original shipping plan has been disrupted, and the company cannot provide a new delivery date until the problem is resolved. There is no telling how long this might take without more information.
