What sources does Taxxa search?

Taxxa searches a continuously updated collection of more than one million pages from tax authorities, government publications, legislation and case law across the European jurisdictions it covers. Every response cites the underlying material, so a professional can inspect the rule, its jurisdiction and whether it is current before relying on the result.

Can Taxxa work with a team’s own documents?

Yes. Research can combine the public knowledge base with a team’s own PDF, DOCX, CSV and TXT files in one workspace. That makes it possible to compare a client document with the relevant guidance, trace a conclusion to its source and prepare a draft without losing the evidence that supports it.

Who is Taxxa built for?

Accountants, auditors, tax advisors, payroll specialists, bookkeepers and advisory teams working across European jurisdictions. Shared workspaces keep research available to colleagues, and citations make review easier.

Where is customer data stored, and is it used to train models?

Customer data stays in the European Union and is never used to train language models.

Does Taxxa replace professional judgement?

No. Taxxa is a research and drafting workspace. It helps professionals reach an informed starting point faster; the professional still reviews the evidence and makes the final decision. It does not file returns, post bookkeeping entries or give legal advice.

Guests under the Ukraine Permission Extension scheme can now apply when their current permission has 90 days or less remainingGOV, instead of 28 days or lessGOV — and the change applies to both first and second UPE applicationsGOV. The guest guidance page for the Homes for Ukraine UPE route now states the 90-day window, and the linked Home Office guidance on applying confirms the same window for first-time and repeat applications, including a further 24-month extension available when an initial UPE period nears its end, applied for 90 days before expiry through the Apply sectionGOV.

The update also records the scheme's longer arc. The UPE scheme opened for applications on 4 February 2025GOV offering up to 18 months' permissionGOV with the same entitlements to work, study, rent and receive benefits, free to apply for. The UK government announced on 1 September 2025 that the scheme will be extended for another 24 months following the initial 18-month periodGOV. The applying guidance grants children not living with a parent or legal guardian 18 or 24 months' permission respectively.

Thank-you payments track a different clock from permission. Eligible sponsors and hosts of guests who moved from a Homes for Ukraine visa to a UPE visa can claim paymentsGOV for up to 18 months from the date the guest first moves onto a UPE visa, after which payments endGOV — eligibility is set by that first-move date and capped at 18 months. Because guests can now apply for a further UPE extension up to 90 days before expiry, sponsors may in some cases keep receiving payments while guests are on a second UPE extension, within that cap. Sponsors and hosts will need to apply for thank you payments to continue when a guest's Homes for Ukraine permission expires or is about to expireGOV; when that permission expires or is about to expire, sponsors and hosts should reapply to their council if they wish to continue to receive a monthly thank you paymentGOV.

Late applications carry a concrete cost. A guest should apply before current permission expires; if the application is late — submitted after expiry — then even if UPE is later granted, the guest loses entitlements to work, study, rent and benefits from expiry until a decision is madeGOV, and may have to repay public funds such as certain benefits paid during that gap. Guests can check their expiry date in their UKVI account. Councils can bridge the gap: they may pay thank-you payments for a further 6 months after the Homes for Ukraine visa ends while UPE permission is still pending, including for late applicationsGOV, but stop after 6 months without confirmation the UPE visa was awardedGOV. Payments are never payable where there is a close family relationship between sponsor and guestGOV, and if a sponsorship breaks down councils may rematch UPE holders previously on Homes for Ukraine permission where there is a material risk of homelessness.

Legal basis: Homes for Ukraine / Ukraine Permission Extension scheme guidance (guest guidance and Applying to the Ukraine Permission Extension scheme), 4 February 2025 opening; 1 September 2025 24-month extension announcement.

Apply within the 90-day window before permission expires — never after — and reapply to the council for thank-you payments when Homes for Ukraine permission ends.
