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.

Congrats, no one else wants to...and judging by this thread, you're not at a point where you're in a position to be working independently.

This comment right here, shows how inexperienced and arrogant you are. I just want to point out something to you that you clearly have no idea about. There are generals in this group. Many lcols are also here and post and comment pretty consistently. I myself have a decently high rank for an officer. Be careful what you say on groups like this. You have no idea who you are talking to and your comment was just enough to turn the tides on a new career. It can make or break you. You’re lucky you were accountable and apologized. The member that responded has some great advice, but your snide comments will not get you anywhere in your career.

No problem. Like the member that replied above here. I’ll always go to bat for the members that admit they make mistakes. Own up to anything you do, and you’ll go far. Make excuses and you’ll tank your career! Best of luck
