SA302 After submission if application?

Does the SA302 need to be dated 28 days before submission too? What if i was to submit now and by the time the biometrics comes around i might have the SA302 and can include it.

HMRC are taking really long with the SA302 for alot of people and i need to submit in the next 2 weeks for my wifes FLR.
