Is the 3.3% VA Funding Fee On a ReFi Deductable?

I'm converting a HELOC to a VA fixed mortgage loan. From what I Google, the 3.3 % VA fee is deductible. If that is true, where would I put it on Schedule A?

My research shows that this is covered in IRS Pub 936, page 8 under Mortgage Insurance Premiums. The VA fee is considered to be payment in full for Mortgage Insurance if paid at closing and is deductible for the year it is paid. It should show up in Box 4 of the 1098. If it does not show up there, I presume I could attach a copy of the closing statement which does show the VA fee?
