Good evening ladies, my child was living here under his fathers sponsorship a few years ago. During a summer trip back to our home country, he decided not to return to Dubai and his residency visa expired.
He would like to come back for a visit but we aren't sure what problems that poses since we never canceled his visa. Im not sure if it matters, but he is now an adult.

Anyone know what we need to do? Thanks so much

http://www.dubaifaqs.com/visa-residence-dubai.php Have a look under Expiry and Cancellation of Residence Visa. This would appear to indicate that if you remain outside of the UAE for more than six months your residence visa becomes invalid - not cancelled. You should therefore get the visa properly cancelled before trying to re-enter the country Hope this helps - although I suspect it's not really what you wished to hear :(
