It means that there was not enough money in the account to cover the check. Non Sufficient Funds.
A NSF (non-sufficient funds) check occurs when a bank account does not have enough money to cover the check amount. When the check is presented for payment, the bank will reject it and typically notify the payee and the issuer. The issuer may incur fees from both the bank and the payee, and the check may be re-submitted or pursued for payment through collection efforts. Additionally, the issuer's account may be flagged for future NSF incidents.
It went NSF and your down payment is not paid. You will likely incur extra charges as well for the NSF not only from the bank but from whomever the down payment was for.
