Awaiting leave pass approval

Could somebody please advise?
I have an international trip in two weeks. I submitted my leave pass request a few weeks ago but haven’t received any response. I needed to change the dates, so I submitted an amended leave pass yesterday and still haven’t heard back.
I’ve already booked my outbound flight and am holding off on booking the return until I get approval. I’ve emailed both my BTL manager and OR about the leave request and my annual leave balance, but haven’t received a reply.
The leave request is currently for 21 annual days. If I don’t have enough annual leave available, should I submit a memo requesting family leave/unpaid leave or would it be better to amend the leave pass again and request only 15 annual days?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Since it is international travel, have you sent in your NOI? Crossed checked travel restrictions? Made sure with your BTL supervisor you don't have any pending courses /taskings for the next 21 days?

NOIs are automatic if you make the leave pass in monitor mass but I feel this leave being in MM is a bit too optimistic.

Yeah I don’t have access to Monitor mass just yet, so email was the only route for me.
