Default De-facto spouse in Ireland?

I am a Northern Irish citizen and therefore myself have no problem in living in the Irish Republic.
However, my girlfriend is American and I would like to know how she can come to live with me in Ireland without us having to get married. We have been in a relationship for two years (can provide evidence of this) but have not been living together so far.

Thanks for any advice.

As far as I am aware, you can only use relationships for visas etc if you're married... although don't quote me on this... you really need to get in touch with immigration in Ireland. Ireland is in the EU so I guess the rules are the same for where I am. I guess your girlfriend really needs to get either a working visa or a student visa. Good luck!
