A Schengen Visa is a visa which allows the holder to visit any country which is part of the Schengen Agreement. Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland are the present Schengen countries (as of May 2009). Liechtenstein is expected to fully sign-up later this year. Also there are no border controls between San Marino, Vatican City and Italy or between Monaco and France. Separate visas are still needed for visits to the United Kingdom, Ireland, Romania, Bulgaria, Cyprus and other European countries. Schengen countries are those where border controls have been abolished so there are no longer any passport checks on borders and it's often difficult to know if you've actually crossed a border. Note that there are still customs checks between Schengen countries where one is an EU member (for example, Sweden) and the other is not part of the EU (for example, Norway). All Schengen countries require people to carry some form of ID with them (whether they are a visitor or a national or resident of that country). To apply for a Schengen visa you should apply to the embassy of the first country you intend to visit. If you plan to visit Italy, France and Spain (in that order) then you only need to apply to the Italian embassy and your visa is good for France and Spain too. European Union and EEA citizens don't need any visas to travel within the EU or Schengen countries. Croatians don't need any kind of visa for travel in Italy, Slovenia or Hungary but do need a visa if they intend to go elsewhere in the EU. Americans and Canadians may need a visa for some EU countries.

What happens if your F1 visa expires and you are married to a US citizen?
Marriage to a US citizen does not confer automatic permanent residency and/or US citizenship rights to a foreign national.
An F1 Visa is a student visa and remains valid as long as the holder is considered eligible under the Student Visa requirements even if said visa has reached the expiration date.
If the person does not qualify as a "student" under immigration law, he or she is "out of status" and unlawfully present in the US, even if he or she is legally married to a US citizen.
The best option is to consult with someone who is versant in immigration law, before contacting USCIS.
In this situation, don't go home because you just complicate things for everyone including your spouse, just file your change of status forms, this process costs upwards of $1,000 for all the forms. You will be called for an interveiw and as long as your marriage is legit, you should receive a temporary green card which will allow you to live and work for 2 years until your next interveiw for your green card. This is easier and faster for both you and USCIS. Get a good lawyer, its easier and smart, you will spend more but that's what u have to do.
