Be extended

Hello, teachers!
Would you please help me with this?

If I've got another 10 day as my vacation, how can I say?
- My vacation is extended for/by another 10 days.
Is this OK? Or should I use the past tense 'was extended'?

Thank you very much.
Peace!

Hi Jandi, I'd say it this way: My vacation has been extended by another 10 days.

Oh! Yes, it's better.
Thank you!
One more, please!
Is the use of 'for' unnaural or incorrect?
