Within eight days of arrival, all military dependents, DOD civilian employees, contractors and their families must submit an application for a Permesso di Soggiorno. The permit gives you permission to legally live in Italy. To get it, you must already have a Missione Visa in your no-fee U.S. passport, which is a requirement before traveling to Italy. Contractors are not given no-fee passports, so the Missione Visa is printed in their tourist passport. The Soggiorno permit is valid for two years, and it is important to check the expiry date and renew if needed.
