✓ Users will be able to filter for cases using one or more of the following criteria based on the form type and submission status:
- Case Number
- Employer Name
- Job Title
- Case Owner
- Case Status
- Period of Employment (Start Date, End Date)

✓ Users will be able to access their case PDF directly from the case tables
✓ Users will see improvements to the time it takes for case number assignment and case status changes to appear
