Sure it is. The OT pay may come from a separate account on their books.
Your normal pay (non-overtime) may be computed several days before. This may be the most efficient way for the bookkeeping staff to get the payroll ready for distribution.
There are enough people out there that are not getting ANY paycheck. I would not complain that I had to sign my name on two checks.

Yes as long as you are getting paid overtime wage and the second check is given within a time frame of 24-72 hours I believe. It's not legal to make you "wait until your next check" say for example if they forgot to put it on the current one. As well, it's not legal if they are doing it for tax ivasion reasons obviously.
Like someone said, it could come from a different account, and it could work out better for you because they may tax the two smaller amounts less than they would tax one big amount.

As long as it is a company check that has the same details of your hours, etc. as your normal check, there shouldn't be a problem. Now if the employer wants to give you your overtime on a personal check, that may be another story.

If you're getting all the money you're owed,and it's not affecting your taxes adversely I wouldn't really worry about it.
My company pays the straight time on every check,but they hold my OT until the next check.It only affected me for my first month there.I've been on board for almost two years,so it's not a problem now.
Check your local laws.

I personally don't see why that would be a problem.maybe they have a regular payroll account then a separte overtime account.

Yes as long as the amount comes out right.

No, as long as it's a check and not cash.
