This approach would retrieve PDFs from our existing S3 storage where they reside before their transfer to VBMS. The solution requires implementing new infrastructure to locate documents and manage secure access for S3. Once a document becomes available in storage, the system would generate a secure download link when documents become available in S3. This approach works for primary path submissions, with backup path documents following a different processing flow. Implementation would require monitoring systems to manage document access and track processing status.

### Option 3: eFolder Access
This solution would retrieve PDFs directly from the Veteran's eFolder, providing Veterans access to their official claim documents. The implementation requires new integration points with VBMS document services and establishing proper security controls for accessing the eFolder. Documents may take varying amounts of time to appear in the eFolder, creating timing challenges. This approach only works for primary path submissions and requires security reviews. The solution necessitates new monitoring systems to track document availability and manage complex error scenarios.
This solution would retrieve PDFs directly from the Veteran's eFolder, providing Veterans access to their official claim documents. The implementation requires new integration points with VBMS document services and establishing proper security controls for accessing the eFolder. While VBA partners expressed interest in eFolder retrieval, the asynchronous nature of our form processing makes that approach complex. We could look into eFolder integration down the road, but since our form processes asynchronously, that might not be the best fit. Documents may take varying amounts of time to appear in the eFolder, creating timing challenges of providing the PDF on the Confirmation page.

## In Scope
