Rather than

@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.IsActive.Value)

Try

@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.IsActive)

I'm not sure you supply the value like that for a CheckBoxFor - you supply the model property

This solved my issue:

@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.IsPublic.Value,
    new { @Id = "IsPublic",@Name="IsPublic" })
