Grammar rule (व्याकरण नियम र परिभाषा)

When to use it

A job ad: 「日本語能力に加えて、実務経験も求められる」(in addition to Japanese ability, work experience is required).
Advice on buying a house: 「手数料に加え、税金や引っ越し費用もかかる」(in addition to the agent's fee, tax and moving costs apply).
It is the language of news, adverts, 市役所 paperwork and reports.

Meaning

「〜に加えて」= 'adding onto this, in addition to this' — it comes straight from the verb 加える (to add).
「〜も」or 「〜など」usually follows.

How to attach

N + に加えて／に加え only — no verb directly (働くに加えて is wrong)
The shorter, more written form (headlines, reports): 「に加え」

Versus what you know

N3「〜だけでなく…も」and 「〜のほかに」do this job in speech; 「に加えて」is the formal one.
This lesson's 「上に」joins whole clauses and has the good+good / bad+bad rule; 「に加えて」joins nouns only and has no such rule — it just adds one thing to another.

Examples (उदाहरणहरू)

この仕事には、日本語能力に加えて、運転免許も必要だ。

このしごとには、にほんごのうりょくにくわえて、うんてんめんきょもひつようだ。

For this job, in addition to Japanese ability, a driver's license is also required.

How it is built (कसरी बन्यो) 日本語能力 = Japanese ability (noun) → we attach 「に加えて」 → then 「運転免許も」 — "a license too" → 必要だ = is needed.

今月は家賃に加え、保険料の支払いもあって大変だ。

こんげつはやちんにくわえ、ほけんりょうのしはらいもあってたいへんだ。

This month, in addition to the rent, there's the insurance payment too, so it's tough.

How it is built (कसरी बन्यो) 家賃 = rent (noun) → the short written form 「に加え」 → then 「保険料の支払いも」 — "the insurance payment too" → あって大変だ = there is that too, so it's tough.

今までのメニューに加えて、来月からネパール料理も出す予定です。
