Deductions & credits

So - I refinanced in 2020.  I got one 1098 from my original mortgage company and my payer/borrower address is the address of the property securing the mortgage, so you'd think Box 7 would be checked, but it is NOT and the SAME ADDRESS listed on PAYER/BORROWER is typed in Box 8.  The second 1098 I received from the refinanced mortgage has Box 7 "checked".  I also notice there is a tax implication when I either check or un-check box 7.  A bit confused.  Any help? @DaveF1006
