I was trying to check a checkbox via jquery that is hidden and I found a code that I used to toggle the interaction. This made it really easy for me to check and uncheck. 

<script>
    $(document).ready(function(){
        $('input[type="checkbox"]').click(function(){
            if($(this).prop("checked") == true){
                console.log("Checkbox is checked.");
            }
            else if($(this).prop("checked") == false){
                console.log("Checkbox is unchecked.");
            }
        });
    });
</script>
