What ES Visa Immigration Services Inc. does

ES Visa Immigration Services Inc. (DBA ES Immigration / ES Immigration Canada) is a privately held Canadian immigration consulting firm headquartered at 2901 Kipling Avenue, Unit 1509, Toronto, Ontario. Founded and led by Evelina Shatilova (Эвелина Шатилова), a licensed ICCRC consultant and CAPIC member who herself immigrated from Kharkiv, Ukraine, the firm delivers document preparation, application submission, and personalized immigration strategy services for individuals and families seeking entry to Canada across more than 50 federal and provincial programs. Service lines span tourist visas, language-course visas, student visas, family sponsorship, Express Entry permanent residence, employment placement, Start-Up Visa, investor immigration, caregiver immigration, and document certification, plus post-arrival settlement support (housing, schooling, driver's licensing, insurance). The firm also operates a specialized practice supporting Ukrainian newcomers through the CUAET program and various provincial welcome initiatives.

The business operates on a professional-services revenue model with two streams. The primary stream is fee-based immigration consulting delivered via scheduled consultations (a free 15-minute session for Canadian residents and a paid 30-minute session) followed by contract signing and end-to-end document handling. The secondary stream is a $12 digital video-instruction product for Ukrainian visa applicants, whose proceeds are directed to volunteer efforts supporting the Ukrainian army. Marketing is executed predominantly in Russian and Ukrainian via a content blog, Telegram channel (CanadaImmiworks), Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, with direct client engagement through phone, email, and messaging apps (WhatsApp/Viber/Telegram).

The firm's go-to-market is sales-led and consultation-based, targeting Russian/Ukrainian-speaking prospective immigrants both domestically in Canada and abroad. It has integrated into the Government of Canada Settlement Program (announced 2022-03-30), which connects it to a network of 550 settlement agencies providing language, employment, education, and translation services. Leadership includes the founder as lead licensed consultant and Jason Smith as CEO. No external funding, institutional investors, parent company, or revenue figures are disclosed; the firm appears to operate as a small, owner-managed consultancy.
