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 spindle fibers
Centrioles are cell structures involved in mitosis in animal cells only. They are responsible for organizing the microtubules that form the spindle fibers necessary for separating chromosomes during cell division.

Spindle Fibers
Spindle fibers attach to chromosomes during metaphase of mitosis. Special protein structures called kinetochores on the chromosomes interact with the spindle fibers to ensure proper alignment and segregation of the chromosomes during cell division.
The spindle is formed during the prophase stage of mitosis or meiosis. In prophase, microtubules organize into a structure called the spindle apparatus, which helps separate the chromosomes during cell division.
During metaphase of mitosis, the chromosomes become attached to the spindle fibers.

The answer is telophase.
Chromosomes attach to spindle fibers during metaphase of mitosis. This is when the chromosomes align at the cell's equator, forming a metaphase plate. The spindle fibers attach to the centromere region of the chromosomes.
Spindle fibers first become visible during prophase of mitosis, when the chromosomes condense and the nuclear envelope breaks down. The spindle fibers are key structures involved in aligning and separating the chromosomes during cell division.

the spindle fibers
Spindle fibers are composed of microtubules, which are long, threadlike structures made of a protein called tubulin. These spindle fibers play a key role in cell division by helping to separate chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis.
