The visa number can be found on the Visa sticker on your passport page. The number can be 8 or more characters long, and in RED color, located towards the bottom right hand quarter of the Visa sticker. Be advised that the "Control Number" is not the Visa number.
Control Number is the visa number. which will be at right top side of your visa page. (Stricken - This is incorrect but it can still connect you to your visa number).
Answer
If you mean a non-immigrant visa such as a B1, B2, F1, H1B, then it's on the visa itself. The visa would be the nice-looking laminated sticker (the new ones, at least) on your passport, and the number would be a long number on the top of the visa. If you lost it, there's going to be some minor problems obtaining the number, but you would have to contac the Dept. of State or the consular section where you obtained the visa. If you're talking about an immigrant visa, an A-number may or may not be assigned to you if you're still waiting for the petition to be approved. Generally, this would not be termed a "visa number". Check out any I-797 Notice of Action mailed by USCIS. The 9 digit number (sometimes 8 digits since the first number is assumed to be 0) would be above the beneficiary name (A xxx xxx xxx). If the number's not there, then there's none assigned. Depending on why you need the "visa number", you can use the receipt number as proof that there's a pending petition (the receipt number is 13 characters long and starts with three letters like EAC, WAC, or MSC).
For Non-Immigrant Visa, Visa number is the RED Number on the Visa itself. This answer is from USCIS.

我自己自问自答吧，至少以后有类似问题的可以看这个贴。 答案就是那个红色的8位号码。这是美国移民局(USCIS)官方回答.
