...How much did they give each individual? (if it's different for each, PM me so as not to give the game away)

It's a little complicated.
Individuals got $600, couples $1,200, plus $600 for each additional child.
Those who made (I think) $75,000 or more were disqualified, or got a lower amount.
People on social security or disability, who paid no taxes got $300 each.
