Does education have any effect on longevity pay for officers with a break in service?

I was having pay issues so I went to my psd and they sent all my information to dfas and bupers. I feel now I am being awarded too many years of pay now though. I am currently being awarded with over 12 years towards longevity pay.
I was enlisted for 6 years then went to school after on the post 9/11 gi bill. ( no military affiliation except va benefits) After I got my degree I went to OCS.
So I know my 6 years of service, 2 years irr, and 1 year current service should be only 9 years right?
I have looked through DOD Financial Management Regulations 7A and asked around but no one knows. Am I being over awarded years and need to contact bupers and dfas again?

Check with the psd before it is too late. Seems you had roughly three year break in service.

Once you got your discharge from the IRR, your service should have stopped, for a total of 8. Unless there is some new legislation to give you college credit, your adjusted pay entry date should go back to 2011 or 2010. You should be paid as O1 with 8 years. Make sure it is corrected ASAP, before the bill mounts.

COL (Join to see) Thank you sir, this is what i thought. I just wasn't sure because dfas and bupers already had fixed my pay to 12 years when I was only getting 4 years. I'll check back with them.
