I am sure there is an easier way to accomplish my goal, however, I would really like to know if nesting the IIF is possible and what I could be doing wrong? Any ideas would be great!

Yes, iif() can be nested. Expressions can get quite complicated. For debugging, try breaking into smaller pieces (add one condition at a time). Or create a function with a DO CASE instead - this will be more readable.
