Chromosomes attach to the mitotic spindle during the metaphase of mitosis. Part of the answer depends on how you define the stages of mitosis and not everybody does this the same way. The short answer is all of them.
The cellular component that helps pull apart the chromosome in mitosis and meiosis are the spindle fibers. These spindle fibers are made of micro-tubules.
telophase
the spindle fibers
The centrioles within the cell form the mitotic spindle.
They pull the sister chromatids apart.
It provides a "scaffolding" for the attachment and movements of the chromosomes during the later mitotic stages.
They pull the sister chromatids apart.
Metaphase is when chromosomes attatch to spindle fibers in the phase of mitosis.
centriols
Spindle
During mitosis a double-stranded chromosome attaches to a spindle fiber centromere.
prophase
They pull the sister chromatids apart.
