    I'm italian, living in los angeles and got an f-1 student visa (for 5 years).
    My girlfriend is coming to see me during christmas. We want to get married here...
    Does she get automatically my visa or must she apply for one, to stay in the states with me after marriage??

    After marriage, you must obtain I-20 for dependent from your school, and apply for F-2 visa for her. International office would be able to help with the procedures. If she enters US under visa waiver program, she must leave and apply for her visa at US consulate in her home country.
