Is there any way to ignore some properties (on a POCO) when validating a form in ASP.NET MVC3?

Question

i\'ve got a sign up wizard for new user registration. When I try to goto the 2nd page, I get validation errors because my User object hasn\'t been fully populated,

In the action just remove the errors for the items not yet checked for. This then makes your model valid for the items already checked

foreach (var error in ModelState["Avatar"].Errors)
 {
      ModelState["Avatar"].Errors.Remove(error);
 }

or

ModelState["Avatar"].Errors.Clear();
