Update.
After filling out the form for Q4 availability (which I will be gone by then) my TL tried to get me to acknowledge my CA.
I told him NO since it was now over two weeks old and should have told me me about the CA a few days after posted in Workday.
My TL tried to say when it was a week old it was because it had to go through HR first.
That's not true and my HR ETL processed it on her end within a day or two of the incident and it was then sent to me without my knowledge.
