Good luck. Things of that nature can be so tricky even when you think you have your ducks in a row.

What is your Basement finished into? The parts of the duct work and basement girder that stick down are permitted by the code as long as they are less than a certain percent of the area. Bedrooms in the basement are not allowed. They will let Storage, a Rec room, bathroom, Laundry area.... They will allow a den as long as you have a secondary means of egress.
When you closed on the house, you should have received copies of all the CO's that were issued but as others have stated, a CO for a finished basement is probably not there. No one files for them unless they have to.

Your problem can be fixed. I am an expediter. I know it can be done. Not trying to solicit for the job. Just trying to give insight...

How do I contact you?

I wonder if the inspector was just looking for his palms to be greased.
