Although the Constitution does not speak as to what constitutes a formal declaration so the the lack of that alone cannot necessarily be deemed as having not given authority.

With respect to Afghanistan and the middle east post 9/11, while Congress granted some authority for action, one could certainly argue it was not a formal declaration in line with what the Constitution intended. However, all presidents since then have worked under the belief they had such authority from Congress.
