Dear Manager's Name, I am writing to formally submit my resignation from my position as Your Job Title at Company Name. My last day of work will be Date - Two Weeks from Today, providing you with the standard two weeks' notice.
You don't have to tell your employer why you're leaving, where you're going next, or what your future plans are. Ideally, you want the conversation to be short, kind, and professional.
In addition, I have three unused vacation days and plan on using those on (list the dates). Thank you for everything you have done to help my career and make my time at (Company Name) such a pleasure. I truly wish you and the organization all the best in the future. Again, this is just a resignation letter example.
The following are the things to keep in mind when writing an immediate resignation letter: Write the date first. Explain only necessities. Remain professional. Include questions. Be grateful. Add contact information. Proofread your letter. Make copies and hand-deliver the letters.
Write a simple two sentence resignation letter addressed to your boss. In the first sentence, state that you are resigning your position. In the second sentence, state that your last day will be two weeks from the date of your letter. Print your letter on plain paper, sign it and copy it for your files.
Unless you have a contract, or signed a document specifically addressing this issue when you were hired, then the answer is that you are not required to give notice. So, the specific answer to your question is, ``Yes, you can use vacation leave'' if you haven't signed saying you won't.

Yes, you can use your accrued vacation time, with your employer's consent, then resign. Unfortunately, in the US many employers strictly regulate the use of PTO. Knowing your employer's rules is very important. They should be written and in a book of some sort or on the company intraweb.
