hello, I am on ILR, forever :)
whats the point to become British citizen? will it be better for my life? better chances to apply somewhere or to get something? is there any difference?

ILR is forever as long as you live in the UK. If you left the UK for more than 2 years, you lose it. BC is never lost.

For some nationalities, one advantage with BC is visa free travel.
