I am planning to apply for the Partner visa 309/100 but I do not have all the documents yet to for uploading with my application. I would like to know how much time do I get to upload all the documents after I have made the application and paid the visa processing fee.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I didn't upload anything until a week or two later after I applied online. You have time until your CO is assigned to upload as much as you want.

Thanks dance123. How long do you reckon it takes to be assigned a CO for 309/100?

Hi,
I have similar questions. When and what do you need to upload?
It seems the online form has differences to the paper form. Therefore what guidance do we follow?
Can we wait for a CO to contact us and request specific evidence?
Currently the online portal has a generic list of forms. Some notes say not to send/upload anything unless requested?
What is optional or mandatory?

Partner (Provisional) visa (subclass 309) and Partner (Migrant) visa (subclass 100) document checklist is the link for the checklist. You attach the evidence and supporting documents with your application, except for the police checks and medicals, which your CO will request.
The confirmation email states:
"Providing documents
The department may make a decision on your application without requesting additional information. You should provide us with all the information you feel is relevant.
If you lodged your application online, you should log in to your account to see the documents required for your application.
Do not send us original documents unless we ask you for them. If you send copies of your documents, ensure that they are certified copies.
If you provide us with fraudulent documents or claims, this may result in processing delays and possibly your application being refused. "

I am currently working to provide certified copies for the key documents (such as identity, stats dec). Other less essential I am just providing electronic copies. I assume that if DIAC require further information or certified copies they will ask for them?

Appreciate the response and am sure that providing as much evidence is helpful. However must say that the various DIAC guidance documents could do with some tweaking.
The confirmation email states:
The online portal has the status of "recommended" against all documents (not "required").

However for a Spouse Visa there are so many different documents that can help prove a relationship that they could never list everything so read the list on that link and then thinnk about the examples that you have inyour own personal situation.
If they feel they do not have enough proof, they will ask for more
