I recommend applying for visa in north NE Arg
I read a post on lonelyplanet.com/thorntree from an Australian guy that waited 3 days for his Brazilian visa in Buenos Aires, and then was denied because he didn`t have a return ticket out as he was travelling (by public transport) overland wherever the wind blew. And a few other people had issues there, but then the same guy went to the Brazilian consulate in Puerto Iguaza and had the visa in 2hrs. He said they mainly gave him advice on where to go in Brazil than ask him questions. So I figured that in this part of Argentina it would be similar for Paraguay, and this morning I obtained a Paraguayian visa from the consulate in Posadas in 1hr, like they said! And treated me above average probably because i`m and extrajero (foreigner) instead of the dirty biker that I am.
They`re open from 7-11am each business day.
