The cancellation of wife's visa upon canceling husband's visa

Q: Good day, When we left Dubai a few years ago, we did not get exit permits before leaving and have not been back since that time. I did resign from my job before leaving and I have proof that the company did cancel my visa after leaving. I also closed all accounts and paid all debts before leaving. I sponsored my wife as "housewife not allowed to work". To my understanding, her visa would have automatically canceled when the company canceled mine. She never worked and never had any loans, accounts, etc. Is there any risk or problem we might experience if we want to transit through Dubai or visit Dubai again because we did not cancel her visa and didn't get exit permits before leaving? Thank you!
