Morphology

presubmission = submission (transparent) = pre + submit + ion

Adding 'pre-' to 'submission' straightforwardly gives the meaning 'before submission'.

Etymology

Presubmission comes from the prefix pre- meaning 'before' and the word submission, from submit meaning 'send in' or 'give'. So a presubmission meeting or checklist is something that happens 'before' you formally send in documents.
