'Extreme Makeover’ Debt Edition! Family Featured On TV Show Files For Bankruptcy

Jan. 10 2017, Updated 12:07 p.m. ET
William and India Dickinson received the house of their dreams on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, but RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal that they haven’t been able to keep up with their new abode!
William, 43, filed a chapter 13 bankruptcy petition in October 2016 after attending credit counseling. He claimed he owed 1-49 creditors anywhere from $100,0001 to $500,000 — the same amount he had in assets.
He only had $5 in cash, $287.29 in a checking account and $15.26 in a joint savings account at the time of filing.
William still received money from the military as well, but listed that he now works as a tech advisor.
He claimed in the explosive filing that he only makes $5,056.87 per month, while his expenses are $3,870.51.
The case is still open, and the Dickson family’s episode aired in May 2011.
