Citizenship Referee - 'not related to you' clarification

[Philn]

Hi,

I am completing my Naturalisation AN form and have a query regarding the referee criteria.

The AN guide states -

Each referee should be:
not related to you
not related to the other referee
not your solicitor or agent representing you with this application
not employed by the Home Office

My girlfriend is a British citizen and over 25 years of age. Does she meet this criteria for the ‘non-professional’ referee criteria?

We are not married but we are living together and share the same address.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Many thanks
