New Schengen visa or extension of old Schengen visa?
I have a multiple-entry Schengen visa (Tourist/Turismo) from the Italian consulate until the 8th of July, 2018 (valid from 16 June 2018) since I went to a conference in Italy from the USA (I am studying in the US on F1 visa). I need to go to Germany from the 20th to the 25th of August for another conference.
Here are my questions.
- Do I have to go to the German consulate (for me Atlanta) since it will be my only destination country in Europe?
- Do I apply for a new Schengen visa or ask for an extension of the visa (if such a process exists) depending on my date of appointment being before or after the 8th of July?
- If I need an extension, do I have to go to the Italian consulate I went to or to the German consulate?

Yes.
Do I apply for a fresh Schengen visa or ask for an extension of the visa (if such a process exists) depending on my date of appointment being before or after the 8th of July?
There is no extension process. You will apply for a new visa.
If I need an extension, do I have to go to the Italian consulate I went to or to the German consulate?
You do not need to do anything with the Italian consulate.
It may be possible that you do not have to go to the German consulate in person because your biometrics will be on file.
