By default when you make a Live CD/USB any information you add or change will revert and not be saved upon reboot. For example, you download a file, after you reboot the file will be gone. Same goes with system settings, like if you change the background, upon reboot it will be back to default. With persistence, that means your changes will be saved as well as data you save (like if were installed normally on a hard drive) As for the UEFI, many users are also having trouble as you are. There have been a few who seem to have got it to work, but takes many additional steps to get it to work. I've seen a few thread here discussing it, not sure if anyone has been truly successful with Kali and Windows 8?
PS Forgot to mention, by nature of CD's and DVD's Persistence does not work.
