can i apply for ILR as i am a EEU (dutch national) been living in the UK for nearly 7 years if so how?

No you can't apply for ILR! but you can apply for its EU-route equivalent, which is PR ..... Permanent Residence.

Download the form EEA3 .... click here .... and read it to establish what evidence you need to supply.

Any particular reason why you need confirmation of your PR status?

Treaty Rights can be exercised in different ways. Being a student is one way, and working as an employee is another. In total you have done that for more than 5 years.

Do appreciate that you do not need to use a form EEA3 to get PR status. You got it automatically after 5 years in the UK. Given that you got PR status more than one year ago, why not now apply for Naturalisation, assuming you have passed the Life in the UK Citizenship test? When making the application you will of course need to show that you have been in the UK exercising Treaty Rights, for at least 6 years.
