Client is over-withholding by a significant amount. Their payroll department uses ADP. They have their employees update their withholding directly through ADP. So, it's not a W-4, but rather ADP's unique form.

The current W-4 no longer uses the words "allowances" or "exemptions" -- but ADP still does. Instead, the W-4 asks for what the taxpayer's anticipated itemized deductions are. The client sent me a screenshot of the form.

Does anyone know how to reconcile this? Also, is ADP using obsolete terminology?

I use ADP RUN to process and manage over 40 accounts and know for a fact that ADP allows both the old W-4 and new W4.. I think this client is mistaken. At the top of the withholding page there is an option to choose either pre-2019 or current W4 and then the rest of the page is identical to that years W4.
