Hi there,
You can create a subscription with a status incomplete in case the first invoice can't be paid. You can specify payment_behavior with allow_incomplete or default_incomplete depending on your use case:

I used customer.subscriptions.create and a subscription was created without any invoice/payment. Is that expected?

Could you please share that subscription Id ?

What's more looking at the logs https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_s7ua5AazfAO58b
I used "collection_method": "charge_automatically"

It's because you passed billing_cycle_anchor: 1666951227 when creating the sub (https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_s7ua5AazfAO58b)
https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-billing_cycle_anchor
This is used to determine the date of the first full invoice, and, for plans with month or year intervals, the day of the month for subsequent invoices. The timestamp is in UTC format.
Which is 1 month in the future 2022-10-28

@halcyon valley all good?
