Withdrawing EEA(FM) and Overstaying

[manicminer]

My wife has just withdrawn her EEA(FM) application. We are leaving the UK to go back to Asia around mid-June.
I am a British citizen, and she is Asian. I was previously exercising Treaty rights in Portugal.

Her passport has been retained by the home office and will be returned through the voluntary departure service at the airport.

Will she be on overstay and subject to a re-entry ban or does this not apply to family members of EU nationals in our situation?

Thanks.

Any re-entry ban based on overstaying would depend on the type of application that your wife makes. For example, it would apply to applications as a visitor but not to applications as a spouse of a British citizen nor to applications under the EEA Regulations.
