Question

I only made very small charitable donations in 2020 and I didn't receive any documents about them. Can I not report them, and not use the deduction? Standard Deduction.

I'm using the standard deduction. I did originally try entering the amounts (like $20) into turbotax in spite of not having the documentation but that didn't seem to work so I want to set it to 0. Is that legal?

Yes, if you do not want to deduct the $20 donation then you do not have to deduct it. You can enter $0.
