Greetings;
For the longest time, until about December 10 one could only find a watermarked draft of the new (2021) W-4 Form. Better yet though, here is an example.
Keep in mind that the claim you make is that you owed no income tax last year, and will owe no income tax this year coming up. So get started with redemption now, before January if you are not doing so already. When you get a full refund for 2021 then you can fill out the 2022 W-4 truthfully and stop withholdings altogether.
You can register Bronze for free and learn a lot here. The serious redemption student can easily upgrade from Bronze to Silver or Gold.
Remember not to squabble with your boss. You will get your refund of withholdings from the IRS/Treasury so if your boss is uncomfortable leave the withholdings in place.

Instead of handing this to our boss we just give it to our CPA and we get our taxes we paid in back? And if that is so then we just go to the government website and print the W-4 out and fill it out like so?

Just now discovering this! Is there something that needs to be done different now that we are mid way through 2021?

Your boss’s ‘discomfort’ should not dictate how you complete your w-4 paperwork. You are, after all, signing under penalty of perjury that the info you supplied is true, correct, and complete, to the best of your knowledge and belief. Remind them of that. Be respectful and polite with your payroll department and remind them that they have no personal knowledge of your tax situation and don’t have any authority to override what you submit.
