Citizenship application referee nationality and profession comnination clarification

Hello,

I will be applying for my citizenship and have 2 referees as follows:

1. Nationality - British, Age - 26, Profession - Solicitor (on the professional list)
2. Nationality - Polish, Age - 34, Profession - Admin (not on the professional list)

Question - Can you please let me know the fact that my second referee is not UK citizen and not on the professional list is a concern and whether I should look for another referee?

Many thanks

You cannot use the polish citizen as the non professional referee.

It is the professional referee that can be any nationality.

The other referee must be British and over 25 years of age.
